BEYOND BIRDS AND BEES Bringing Home a New Message to Our Kids About Sex, Love, and Equality

Author Bonnie Rough narrates her thought-provoking and down-to-earth exploration of comprehensive education on sexuality for children of all ages. While living in Amsterdam with her young daughter, Rough observed a fascinating difference between Dutch and American attitudes toward bodies, sex, and gender; her subsequent exploration of the topic led to this audiobook. The work balances research with personal stories, and Rough capably handles both. Her straightforward performance keeps the listener engaged as she reviews data, and her voice shines with warmth, humor, and pride when she relates anecdotes about her two daughters. Parents and caregivers will find this relatable guide to a fraught topic a compelling and reassuring listen. E.C. © AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine [Published: JANUARY 2019]
