Publisher's Synopsis
This book takes a look at the parts of the body and functions of human reproduction organs and how they work. The very basics of the body are explored as the young reader is taken through the process of pregnancy and birth, growing up, puberty and adulthood. Also discussed are aspects such as the emotional change young people can expect to go through and the problems and facts of life they may encounter as they emerge into young adults. These include contraception, AIDS, responsibility and sexual behaviour. A number of questions often asked by young people are addressed, such as: where do babies come from; how does menstruation affect me; what is a wet dream; can I get AIDS; and am I a virgin?
