Sex is a Funny Word: a Book about Bodies, Feelings, and YOU

A parent would reach for this book when their child begins asking complex questions about bodies, gender, and the multi-faceted meaning of the word sex. It is an essential resource for families who want to move beyond basic anatomy to discuss the emotional and social components of growing up. The book uses a comic book format to explore four key areas: bodies, gender, respect, and feelings. It provides a non-judgmental framework for understanding that there are many ways to be a person and many ways to have a family. Parents choose this book because it prioritizes consent, inclusivity, and open communication over clinical jargon or rigid binaries. It helps bridge the gap between early childhood curiosity and the complexities of pre-adolescence by fostering a sense of self-confidence and respect for others.
