Bigger by Daniel Kirk

Illustrator: Julia Gorton (designer)
Series: none
Publisher: G. P. Putnam's Sons 1998

This is a great book for those who are not afraid to teach their children that they come from the mother's womb. A boy tells how he began growing in his mother's womb and just kept growing after he came out. He tells the ways he could tell he was growing (such as reaching a doorknob or outgrowing clothes) and what he learned as he grew. The text is white on a black page and the illustrations are a little cartoonish.
