More than a few parents — mostly fathers — have long dreaded that fateful question: Where do babies come from? It’s a stress that’s been handed down like an heirloom from generation to generation. Why are we so uncomfortable?
On this edition of Just One More Book!!, Mark speaks with Laurie Krasny Brown and Marc Brown about their book What’s the Big Secret?, their decision to write the book as a fact book instead of a story book, and their experiences working on books together.
As a bonus, listen to the very end of the show, after the theme music, to hear a humourous story about Laurie and Marc’s first collaboration and how it earned Laurie a speeding ticket.

Imagine finding treasure in your attic, or the attic of a loved one. I’m not talking about a trunk filled with gold and precious stones. I’m talking about a box filled with the pieces of an amazing and true story.
