The Birthday Suit Book 1

The Birthday Suit Book 1 is a complete manual for parents to confidently teach their children with lessons for each birthday from 1 to 9 years old, (and a second book for 10-18 year olds) that guides discussions on all topics including anatomy, sex, puberty, pregnancy and delivery, safety and all the hard stuff parents dread bringing up. This book includes a sequential-like order and progression of content that is age appropriate, with visuals and drawings that are not unnatural cartoon figures, but respectful anatomical pictures your kids will understand. Kids will be able to physically relate to the diverse variety of white, tan, brown and black races in the drawings that are anatomically represented throughout the books. Over 125 parents were interviewed and their experiences and advice encourage parents with a boost of confidence that they can do this! This book appeals to every parent regardless of political, religious, or cultural views because the facts and topics, and basic definitions are presented without any opinions. Parents add their family values through questions and journal discussions so each family can customize their teaching with their own family beliefs. Through these books, children will learn to respect their incredible body, and parents will have confidence and have the resources to teach. Parent-child relationships will grow, and trust will continue to be built with each yearly Birthday Suit Talk! The Birthday Suit Book1 will strengthen your family bond and amend generations of shame and embarrassment about our bodies into one of admiration and respect.

Zany women and their pets have fun getting older. "When I get old, I hope to have friends as awesome as these. This is an absolutely feel good novel. Naturally, our intrepid characters, wattles and all, undergo all sorts of trials, but it's the compassion and generosity they exhibit that endears the reader." -- Sam Sanders, via NetGalley Zany families, eccentric friends, and ne-er-do-well neighbors inhabit the labyrinthine lives of three women friends as they grapple with real world events in one "Golden Year." An unwelcome visit from local law enforcement, a younger friend's romantic chaos, and the death of a parent combine with daily mundanities---laundry, scones, and senior sex---to create a walloping, raucous read. Opinionated pets---critics and alter egos---offer a rich counterpoint to the human dramas affecting their lives. Unfiltered and compelling, this entertaining sago provides readers of all ages with a new and positive view of growing older.
