A very good chapter on the growing mind and the
inquisitive nature of an intelligent child. I like the part about Harry talking to his snake.
The imaginary "conversations" Harry has with his pet is easier for adults to accept than the "facts of life" discussion that always comes up. You did a great job on this touchy subject. Thanks for writing. pms

Sweet! From the only slightly fumbling to the outright tongue-tied! I can't think of any of the parents I know handling a discussion about sex without some problems and expecially about same sex unions.
