Pregnancy - The First Nine Months of Our Life explained for Children and Parents - Hardcover

This booklet does not try to teach sex education nor does it show a photographic atlas of the events in pregnancy as do such books available in bookshops for a long time. Rather the booklet aims at explaining the development of man in the womb in understandable, humorous words and simple illustrations suited for children and adults alike. The book is addressed to children capable of reading as well as to their parents, to pupils and their teachers, and to all those who want to know how they once grew inside their mother. Reading and viewing reveal an incredible adventure. The heritage of our evolutionary past is made obvious more courageously and clearly than in common textbooks for grammar schools. It is explained how it is determined whether a boy or a girl will be born, how the child can live entirely under water for nine months (therefore, in contrast to common belief, it can hear voices and music not undistorted). More key words are fertilization, embryonic development, amniotic sac and waters, placenta, and birth.
