Overview

Author Jim Burns believes the key to instiling in children a healthy, values-centered view of sexuality is to start the discussion early—being open and honest at every stage. The Pure Foundations series is already guiding parents of preteens and teens through potentially awkward conversations. Now two fully illustrated books—one for pre-readers and one for early readers—complete the series.

How God Makes Babies is an age-appropriate introduction to basic sexuality, helping children ages 6 to 9 understand that God created males and females differently and with a purpose, emphasizing that God is a part of each family from conception to death.

What People are Saying About This

Violet Nesdoly

"Burns' tone is upbeat, warm, and affirming. Though the vocabulary is simple enough for the capable reader to read God Makes Babies for him or herself, it would be a shame for parents to miss out on the discussion that could arise out of reading the book with youngsters.... I'm impressed with how much information is packed into this slim volume. It certainly covers the basics, and follows nicely on the heels of God Made Your Body, the Pure Foundations book for three to five-year-olds. Burns' directness about topics that can be touchy to introduce will certainly open the door to all kinds of discussion between you and your youngsters. I wish I'd had this book when my kids were six to nine."--(Violet Nesdoly, BlogCritics.org)
