A Tiny Itsy Bitsy Gift of Life by Carmen Martinez Jover
Product Description
A touching egg donor story to begin explain infertility issues to children. A happy couple of rabbits, Pally and Comet have everything in life except a baby rabbit. The reader accompanies the rabbits in their longing for a child. The mother rabbit is informed she has no eggs to conceive thus beginning the idea of egg donation. One day a good lady rabbit brings the "mommy to be" rabbit a tiny itsy bitsy gift of life, which is the egg, the half, she needs to conceive. The rabbit's tummy then begins to grow and finally her baby bunny is born. The colorful egg donor story is ideal for children even before they can read. Adorable pictures easily capture a child's attention. The book is easy for parents to read to their child at a very young age so that gradually, as the child grows they will begin to understand their origins.

Simple explanation of a complex issue...
As a surrogate mom, I am always intrigued with the creative ideas authors have come up with to explain infertility to children at a young age. This book explains in simple terms, the concept of egg donation.

It begins simple enough with the desire to have a child and that two parts are needed, one from a male and one from a female. (You will not find graphic sperms and eggs here. This is an introduction book.) The idea is illustrated through comparison to a cookie, in the sense that one needs two cookie halves to make a whole. Later in the story two seeds connect together much like puzzle pieces making it very simple for children to understand.

We learn one has to wait to see if a baby will grow and of the sadness when the attempt fails. It is appropriate the lady rabbit knocking on the door with the "gift of life" is one they have never seen before. Often in egg donation or surrogacy, the helping female is a stranger. Nicely done!

There is no mention of the doctor. We move quickly to how the "gift of life" is connected with "the other tiny itsy bitsy half we need" from Comet (Daddy rabbit) and children are reminded of the two cookie halves again, nicely tying the story together.

After some time, the rabbits have a new baby, thus creating a family. The illustrations are fantastically bright through out which children will thoroughly enjoy. I see both parents and single moms and dads using this book to explain egg donation to their child at a young age. -- Tracy

In a simplistic innocent manner, this egg donor story provides a vehicle for introducing this sensitive form of third party parenting (also known as ovum donation) to their child.
