My daughter negotiated three extra pages of The Wild Robot last night using legal arguments I didn't know she had. What book has your kid actually begging to stay up past bedtime?

Frage an die #FediEltern
Kennt ihr Bücher für kleine Kinder, die ein bisschen erklären wie der Körper funktioniert? Also z.B. wo das Essen hingeht, wo das Pipi herkommt, wofür Blut da ist etc.? Ich meine jetzt keine Aufklärungsbücher, die erklären wo die Babys herkommen, aber so die "normalen" Körperfunktionen eines Kindes.
Unsere Tochter ist drei, liest aber eher Bücher ab 4-5. Kann gerne auch mehr Text sein, aber es sollten schon auch viele Bilder dabei sein.

Viel Spaß beim Eintauchen... und wenn ihr mehr wollt, gibt es das Buch hier als eBook und Buch:

“Barrie’s book may ostensibly be about the boys’ eternal childhood, but it’s the mother figures who are the scaffolding upon which his story rests.”

“Barrie was a wounded creature, from his earliest youth, and his probing of that wound is what makes PETER PAN so enduringly painful to read […] The tensions are bald and excruciating.”

AUNTIE ROBBO was, however, published in the USA. Even though (or because) it came with the warning that here was a book “without a shadow or suspicion of a moral”, it sold well & was eventually printed in the UK, first by Constable (1959) & then by Puffin (1962)
