Sumár recenzie
Kniha Sex je vtipný slovo (Cory Silverberg, ilustrácie Fiona Smyth, preklad Vendula Bittner) je výborne spracovaný, komiksový a farebný sprievodca pre deti pred alebo na začiatku puberty, vhodný približne od 8 do 13 rokov. Zameriava sa na rešpekt, dôveru, radosť a spravodlivosť, popisuje zmeny tela v puberte, vzťahy, dotyky a inkluzívne poňatie pohlaví, pričom neobsahuje sexuálne aktivity (okrem zmienky o masturbácii) a zvlášť citlivo rieši tému utajovaných dotykov/zneužitia. Text vedie dialóg štvorice kamarátov, povzbudzuje k rozprávaniu s dôveryhodným dospelým, je kultúrne citlivý a český preklad je vydarený; recenzentka knihu dôrazne odporúča a hodnotí ju 10/10.
