Controversial Book


Well I guess Babette Cole likes to get herself on the controversial books list huh? This book by her is simply controversial because of the topic of puberty. This is a story I would probably let my children read to get a better idea of what puberty is. They will understand it and it is a tough topic to talk about with kids and Babette Cole does a good job of using humor to deal with it. The illustrations of Mr. and Mrs. Hormone are hilarious. the pictures are funny and entertaining along with the story. I don't really see this book as controversial, just natural.
