Can anyone recommend a book for children re sex

[Pibplob]

My 8 year old son is asking what sex is and I don't think he will stop asking until he knows. Can anyone recommend a book that he can look at and read alongside what I tell him. Something suitable for an 8/9 year old and talks about sex and what to expect as he gets older re changes in body. Thanks.

A friend has used 'sex is a funny word' and rated it. She said it was good as it talks about feelings etc, not just biology.

We just got 'it's not the stork' (www.amazon.co.uk/d/cka/Its-Not-Stork-Families-Friends-Library-Paperback/0763633313) although my DDs are a bit younger than your son, so maybe the next one 'It's so amazing' (www.amazon.co.uk/Its-So-Amazing-Families-Paperback/dp/0763668745/ref=pd_bxgy_14_img_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=DPPZ5DJK07YEQZNTNAAE) would be better for him. They're both very straight forward and comprehensive, and my girls were pretty fascinated.

I read this one with my DS10. It gives the facts in detail and is full of information about what will happen during puberty. It's also 3.99 on Amazon...

Thank you. I will take a look at the links. Thanks.

Another vote for it's not the stork/ it's so amazing

We have Claire Rayner's The Body Book www.amazon.co.uk/Body-Book-Non-fiction-Claire-Rayner/dp/0590556088?tag=mumsnetforum-21
It's told in a very matter of fact way. My 7 year old has read it and I think it explains it all well
