Have students locate a book, either in the library, the bookstore, or online, that provides messages about sexuality in children and adolescents. They should review the book or at least online descriptions of the book. What is the intended audience of the book? How accurate is the information in the book? How comprehensive is it? Would you recommend the book to parents? Here are some suggestions, but there are more.  If you have trouble, check with Mike Smith in the library.  It is ok to just look at reviews and some of the details about the book online.  A stop into your local library or bookstore would be best.  Have a coffee!   Write up one page about what you read and saw.  It is ok to review several books!
