Specifically designed for young readers, Boys, Girls & Body Science walks children through the wonders of their bodies in a direct, easy-to-read manner. The story begins with Nicholas, 7, and Jenny, 5, learning about different types of science in their class - from ecology to the digestive system. Then Meg Hickling, a guest speaker, comes to talk to them about a new type of science. Hickling talks about the "science names" for the children's body parts, about good and bad touches and about making babies. She coaches the children not to be embarrassed or shy about body science: "We are going to make this just like a science lesson, we will learn to think like a scientist and we will learn the scientific names for our private parts," she says. Hickling is a Registered Nurse who has been teaching sexual education for over 25 years. She is an outstanding educator, and her ability to convey difficult material with sensitivity, gentle humour and warmth distinguishes her as a remarkable teacher and role model. In this latest publication, Hickling brings her award-winning lesson into the homes, schools and libraries of inquisitive children everywhere! Review: Excellent book! - This book was perfect for my 9 yo daughter. I spent a lot of time looking for a book to help me have 'that talk' after feeling like the book I used for my eldest daughter was a little 'too much info!'. The reviews were spot on with this book - it was factual, acknowledged that it is an uncomfortable subject, that they might feel embarrassed or giggle, but also didn't go into too much information that she really doesn't need to know at this stage. She started off by putting her hands over her ears "la la la la I don't want to do this mum!" but by the end of the book she was asking some very thoughtful questions and took the book to read again - so a success in my eyes. I loved the bit in the book about different families having different views on when you are old enough to have sex - it opened up the discussion about it being special and precious. The scientist slant on the story was excellent. Over all it was a very positive book which enabled a positive discussion - I would absolutely recommend this book!

It's an answer to some of her basic body questions. The only problem I had was that the front cover of the book was very very dirty,covered in brownish-dried up thick whatever. Because I really wanted the book, I cleaned it off with wet wipes before handing the book over to my child. It shouldn't have been posted in that horrible and messy condition. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/64576954-boys-girls-and-body-science-a-first-book-about-facts](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/64576954-boys-girls-and-body-science-a-first-book-about-facts) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-06*
