It's So Amazing by Robbie H. Harris and Michael Emberly

Amazon Link
For ages 3 and up, It's So Amazing does an incredible job of explaining the basics of the birds and the bees with illustrations, trivia facts, and matter-of-fact information that takes away any embarrassment a child might feel when discussing these topics with adults. The basic human body is explained, comparing the differences and similarities between males and females and how they reproduce. All sizes, shapes, and different types of families are included and well represented in this updated and well-done book.
