My Story, My Gift (unknown recipients)

For children of egg donors

This lovely, beautifully illustrated book is aimed at children from 5-10 yrs. It explains in simple words and pictures how Mummy became a egg donor because she wanted to do something important to help other people have children.

There is a simple explanation of how you need a sperm from a man and an egg from a woman to make a baby but there is no reference to sex. It talks about how there are different ways to make a family and they come in all shapes and sizes.

The book is designed as a simple starting point for parents to begin sharing this information with their child. Parents can then build on that with more precise details as and when it feels appropriate.
