Sex Is a Funny Word: A Book about Bodies, Feelings, and You -- Cory Silverberg, Hardcover

Winner of the the 2016 Norma Fleck Award for Canadian Children's Non-Fiction 2016 Stonewall Honor for Books in Children's and Young Adult Literature American Library Association Reading List 2016 The eagerly anticipated follow up to Lambda-nominated What Makes a Baby, from sex educator Cory Silverberg and artist Fiona Smyth, Sex Is a Funny Word reimagines "sex talk" for the twenty-first century.

A comic book for kids that includes children and families of all makeups, orientations, and gender identities, Sex Is a Funny Word is an essential resource about bodies, gender, and sexuality for children ages 8 to 10 as well as their parents and caregivers. Topics covered include: - What is sex? - Privacy, safety, and respect - Boundaries regarding nudity, talking about sex, and touch - Assigned sex, gender identity, and gender roles - Names and functions of body parts - Talking about the word "sexy" - Protecting yourself against unwanted sexual touch and abuse - Crushes, love, and sexy feelings

Much more than the "facts of life" or "the birds and the bees," Sex Is a Funny Word opens up conversations between young people and their caregivers in a way that allows adults to convey their values and beliefs while providing information about boundaries, safety, and joy. Sex Is a Funny Word is the first sex education book for this age group that is inclusive of lesbian, gay, and bisexual experience as well as gender creative and gender-nonconforming children.
