鈥淐urrent, engaging and offers a safe space for parents, caregivers, and educators to talk about human beings and their bodies. Highly Recommended.鈥
- CM Reviews, 02/12/21
鈥淎 joyous and empowering book that should be welcomed by many seeking such volumes to teach their kids about bodies and their parts, but also about human diversity broadly speaking. It鈥檚 a must-have for any young child鈥檚 bookshelf.鈥

鈥淢elissa Cho makes our bodies a celebration of boldness, in colour and shape, and helps to ensure that every child will see themselves and those important to them.鈥
