Tonight out of the blue, Amelie came to me asking...
Amelie: "Mom, I want the talk"
Amelie: "Mom, I want the talk"
Me (clueless): "You want what? What talk?"
Amelie: "You know 'The Talk'! "
Me: "Oh... The Talk!? About sex?"
Amelie: "Yeah about how to make babies."
Me: "Now?"
Amelie: "Yes"
Me thinking.
Oh no, not now? she just turned 9!
I should have had a few more years like at least 1 or 2 before 'The Talk'!
I need some visual helps. Please some help!

I also know that we need to seize those moments when they come,
so we talked a little about some of it without going into details.
And, she is Ok with waiting for the books.
So now, at least, I have a few days to prepare, until the first book arrives!!!
I also will have the help of some really smart people that wrote these books!
Here are Amelie's and my picks after reading reviews and looking into them.
Amazon had a special by 3 get 1 free so we also got these:
Just when I thought the conversation was over...
Amelie asks: What I would say if I had a boyfriend!?
Oh Boy!
so I added this one to the list:
