Is there a book comparable to the girls book "The Wonder of Becoming You?" A book Jewish or not that discuses puberty and basic zex Ed? Or course my DH is going to also talk to him....

Great idea! I am not aware of any such thing written for the frum audience. I imagine it would be a bit complicated as people have different views about certain aspects of the topic. I wonder if a publisher would take on the idea if someone pitched it to them and we could express a demand for it.

Not sure I understand the last comment, but I'd buy this for sure.
Maybe Rabbi Horowitz (Project YES, Let's Stay Safe!) should tackle this, for a more positive take on the stuff he usually handles (very, very well; don't get me wrong, I love his stuff!) from a negative perspective...

The reviews aren't clear as to how appropriate it is for a Jewish hashkafa.
Unfortunately I think for boys it's even harder to get a fully fitting non Jewish book on such topics...


http://www.barnesandnoble.com/.....75405 OK read this and forget it !

I have no idea how this would go over with kids- but how about using the book as a guide- to either write your own or simply cut and paste into your own booklet?
