Summary
A cheeky celebration of boobies! Nancy Vo’s latest creation is fresh and funny, while serving up just the right amount of fact.
You have just opened a book about boobies.
Meet the Blue-footed Booby, who does not have any boobies at all, since only mammals have boobies. We learn that mammals have boobies to feed babies, even though milk can also come from plants.
And did you know that boobies, or breasts, vary from person to person, that boobies change over time, and that different animals have different numbers of boobies?
Witty and wide-ranging, this eye-opening picture book goes on to explore connections between boobies and mountains, boobies and ancient art and, of course, boobies and you!
Punchy prose is complemented by striking stencil art in a retro palette, making this the perfect gift for curious young children, older children getting to know their bodies, and anyone ready to boldly celebrate boobies!
Critic Reviews
Informative and entertaining and with playful words and pictures, this book is a celebration of our wonderful bodies.
Critic Reviews
Vo plays deliriously with words and expectations but also delivers a frank overview of mammary glands across (relevant) species.
Critic Reviews
Boobies is a wonderful, non-judgmental, body-positive celebration that successfully manages to both educate and entertain.
Critic Reviews
A groundbreaking picture book ... Boobies is a big step forward in educating young children about the mammary gland's use.
Critic Reviews
Playful and silly, Boobies honours these beautiful body parts by highlighting their function and explaining some lesser known, yet interesting, scientific and historical tidbits ... This delightful read is appropriate for primary students, young ones with a good sense of humour, and families on a breastfeeding or chestfeeding journey.
Critic Reviews
A truly delightful read. As informational as it is witty and bright, Boobies offers conversational narration that leads readers through a variety of facts and figures about mammalian and human breasts.
