From fertilisation through to pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding and parenting across all sorts of mammals, Cathy Evans and Bia Melo have produced a highly accessible and enjoyable information book. Each spread has almost child-like drawings illustrating each part of the process and Evans' language means that complex ideas (which aren't really complex but we seem to want to avoid them in the UK) are easy to grasp. I read this with both my boys (8&10) in a few sittings and it just made clear what had been outside their grasp. It's a smashing addition to a classroom and would work well in KS1/2+
