Hair in Funny Places by Babette Cole


Wow. I can honestly say I have never read a book like that in my life! Judy Bloom, yes... a picture book on how girls and boys will grow and develop, no! I understand why this is considered a controversial book. It's a difficult subject for anyone talk about... children and adults alike, but I don't think I would have my students, or my own children for that matter learn about the changes in their bodies and what puberty is through a book like this. The book did make me laugh and I thought the pictures were humorous... but that's about where it ends for me.
