About this book
Help prepare children for the big feelings that come with developing bodies. From inspiring a sense of awe in the science of our bodies to understanding that bodies can be tricky, this book will help children learn how to be themselves and feel like they belong. Some children might feel like their body is different. But being different is completely natural . . . it’s just science! By teaching the principles of DNA, anatomy, nature vs. nurture, environmental influence, and more—all in language that is accessible and inclusive—children will learn to celebrate all body types. Tips are included throughout to help them feel confident and empowered as they grow. Adults might even learn something, too!

The bans were upheld in multiple districts, reflecting a growing trend of censorship targeting educational materials that address topics of body diversity and sexual orientation.
