The fifth edition of the sex-education series for children, “Learning Abo
ut Sex,” is now available from Concordia Publishing House.
The series provides up-to-date and medically correct information, with age-appropriate language and illustrations. Originally released in 1982, the set is designed to help children develop a godly, biblical understanding of human sexuality, and assist parents in answering their children’s questions. It was last revised 10 years ago.
New this year, each level of “Learning About Sex” is now gender-specific, with separate books for boys and girls. The new edition includes updated information and illustrations, and some areas have been expanded to reflect today’s world, which is dealing to a greater degree with issues such as pornography and date rape, according to a CPH spokesman.
Five books in the series come in separate editions for boys and girls. They are:
