Description
This sort of book is so helpful when a girl starts to see changes in her body and has questions. This one is unique in that it spends a great deal of time on skin care, hair, and body image. These are not always addressed in books about the puberty years. Includes tips on being prepared for changes, menstruation, and other often embarrassing topics. It's like having a big sister fill you in! While this is not written from a Christian perspective, the content is addressed with humor and tact without being scary. It covers a LOT of ground and would be a great conversation starter. ~Sara

Colorfully and humorously illustrated, these books will be a tremendous help to parents as they try to answer some of the tough questions their children ask. You can read the book together or let the child read and then discuss the topics with you. Each book is written to the specific needs of either a boy or girl, which is very helpful. Besides the textual information, the reader will find blurbs throughout that give quick tips, facts, expert advice, and comments from peers pertaining to specific topics.
