It’s Perfectly Normal: Changing Bodies, Growing Up, Sex, and Sexual Health is a children’s book written by Robie Harris and illustrated by Michael Emberley. The purpose of the book is to inform preadolescent children about puberty by exploring different definitions of sex. It was first published in 1994 by Candlewick Press and has since been updated several times with new information. It’s also been published under the title Let’s Talk About Sex in the UK. Harris was prompted to write It’s Perfectly Normal by her editor so young individuals would understand aspects of sexual health. The book has won multiple accolades and appraisal for its accurate information and its normalization of body changes and human sexuality.[4] However, it has also been a source of controversy because of its graphic images that some consider inappropriate for the targeted age range
