Childhood Sexuality is one of the first books to present facts about the normal sexual behavior of children under thirteen. This valuable book offers information about the relationship between age and sexual development, both mentally and physically, with males and females. Comprehensive and enlightening, Childhood Sexuality examines the difficulties of gathering this information from children and gives insight into questions that need to be answered in the future. This guide offers readers a diverse look at the complex and intriguing topic of normal child sexuality and the progress that has currently been made in this area. Childhood Sexuality explores several issues, including:

	what children ages two to six think or know about sexuality
	the process of body discovery among children
	the importance of growing up in a positive environment
