With a total of six chapters, the textbook introduces a wide range of basic knowledge including the topics of "What is the difference between a boy and a girl?", "Why am I a boy and not a girl?", "What does a father mean to a son?", "How can we get along with nature?" as well as "Why do we need to have awareness about investment and money management?".
本教材一共分为六章，涵盖了“男生和女生之间究竟有何不同”“为什么我是男孩不是女孩”“父亲对于儿子意味着什么”“如何和大自然和谐相处”以及“为什么我们需要具有投资和理财意识”等方面的内容。
The Shanghai Educational Publishing House said pupils who learn the book will have a separate classroom from their female classmates. No word yet on what textbook the girls will learn from in their classrooms.

The move aims to help boys more openly discuss some questions they might otherwise not address in their daily lives.
