“This Book is all about you.
We wrote it because we thought you’d like to know exactly where you came from, and how it all happened.”
A good old fashioned birds and bees book. I picked this up because it looked familiar
to me, as I witnessed the animated version (here) of the book on vhs at the ripe age
of 8. My sister and I would giggle during the bath tub scene and share crooked
glances at one another during some of the more preposterous parts. Some of the
key elements in the book were changed around a bit for the animated version,
which Howie Mandel narrated.
