How a baby is made - books

Can anyone recommend a good book dealing with how a baby is made for a 6/7 year old? I realise I could ask this on other boards but. I’m wondering if there might be any that are more/less suitable for adopted children. TIA!

We have "Where Willy Went"- it's a bit twee, but clear on the biology, and doesn't use mum and dad, it uses Mr and Mrs Browne. So it can lead on to talks about if people like Mr and Mrs Browne can't keep their babies safe, they may need a new mum and dad.

Oh that’s great, thanks so much. I knew someone on this board would come up trumps!

What Makes a Baby by Cory Silverberg is also quite inclusive.

Thanks so much. I’ve ordered a couple as I’ll share them with friends too. I appreciate the advice!
