'Miracle Boy Eddie'

"How did I actually get into your stomach?" 4-year-old Eddie asked his mother one day. And it was a good question. But also a bit difficult to answer, because making a little human is complex! How do you explain to your children how they are made when they are made with more help from the doctor than bees and flowers. The book is an almost 1:1 reproduction of the conversation between Cathrine and her son Eddie about how he found his way into her stomach.

Miracle Boy Eddie is the story of how children are made. With humor and warmth, Cathrine tells the story at child level, how a tiny human being is built, how the body actually works – and how one is made, even when a helping hand is needed. Her desire with the book was to start the conversation about making children more truthful - and earlier with our children, so that they gain an understanding earlier that it can actually be quite difficult to make those little miracles happen.

The book is richly illustrated by Pauline Drasbæk and relevant for both adults and children, especially those aged 4–7.

Note: The book is published in Danish.
