What it says

A no-stone-left-unturned explanation about all the ways humans reproduce and FORM family.

Written for youth, families and classrooms, each chapter is packed with real-life stories and informative illustrations that explain the fascinating science of assisted and unassisted reproduction - sex, insemination, IVF, donor conception, and surrogacy. The book also delves into and celebrates diverse family structures and explores the complexity of what it means to create, find, and be family.  We hope that each and every readers finds themselves on these pages and knows that there are oh-so-many ways we come to be in this world, and come to be part of our families.
