*Jo Hirst, Author of A House for Everyone*
This book is fantastic! It's inclusive, medically accurate, gender
affirming, body positive, and comprehensive in its delivery of the
education young people need to understand bodies, identities,
relationships, and sexual health. It delivers information using a
tone that invites young people's curiosities and normalizes their
unique experiences, coupled with beautifully diverse illustrations.
This book is a must-have for youth, families, schools, and
professionals working with young people.
*Melissa Carnagey, founder of Sex Positive Families*
This is a greatly needed book in our world right now. I hear from
children, youth, parents, physicians, therapists and educators
every week that they have a need for this type of comprehensive,
clear, respectful and inclusive information. Rachel has done an
incredible job of making the content relevant and relatable. We
will all benefit from having this book to help young people know
their bodies and feel good about their bodies, and for once - truly
every body's body! Thank you Rachel.

Age-appropriate detail is given, and there are plenty of
suggestions of resources for finding out more if interested. The
illustrations are excellent, full of colour and factual detail, and
proper medical language is used throughout. This is a really good
introduction to the facts of life and will provide lots of
information to those just starting out on the journey through their
own sexual bodies.
