Great book for 8 year old. Body positive, reassuring, very simple and matter of fact. Best one I’ve found so far - lots of pictures, and not too dense/technical. Nicely pitched.
This is a really good book to help explain and answer any questions your daughter may have. However there were a handful of items I did remove or cover because I felt like they were not necessary for my daughter. If you do purchase which I do recommend I also recommend that you read prior to sharing it with your daughter so that you can ensure that it matches your values and development of your daughter. Overall though this book was helpful for my daughter and she has read it a few times and she feels confident that she is aware of what her body will/is going through.
This isn’t worth recommending to my parent-friends. It’s a pretty surface level introduction to puberty. This is a publication from London, which I didn’t know upon purchasing - this makes reading it different enough that I’m still undecided as to whether or not I’ll have my daughter read it. The spellings of proper terms are different as are the slang terms used. I’ll likely place it upon her bookshelf, but rely on other books we have to guide our conversations.
Love the idea of this book. The diagram of the internal and external organs are great. Very clear and the correct names! (Youd be shocked at how many books call the entire thing a vagina rather than a vulva) Great explanation of the period cycle
has a few things i didn’t but this was worth mentioning: - using soap and water to wash vulva. This is a good way to get infections because you ate washing away the natural backterias inside that are there to clean.
Read this with Natalie and it prompted some great conversations. The graphics are detailed cartoons which made them less intimidating for a 9 year-old. Love how the author emphasized how a pre-teen might be feeling learning this new information.
4 stars instead of 5 because there were bits and pieces of information in here that I felt were unnecessary, but overall, a great way to give more details about puberty in a gentle way.
I’ve just bought this book for my 9 year old who is growing and changing and feeling confused and I’ve just read it to make sure it’s appropriate and it’s brilliant, really easy to read and understand and breaks things down for the child, it even has a section on boys and how they change too during puberty, hopefully it’s going to help my girly! I would highly recommend to other moms of little girls
Lots of information for girls to know about and clear pictures to help with the information about transitioning through puberty and other factors of adolescents stages. Good for children with disabilities as well
When I was 12 I was scared of what was going to happen when I reach puberty but when I got all the info of puberty I was calm and now I am living a healthy life and btw I am 15

Great way to explain puberty to younger girls (8-12 years), covering lots and lots of helpful information. Pretty surface-level but had some good titbits in!
Really good I would consider not everything about periods and more stuff for girls and boys sorry lol I chose the rating bc it showed me what I'll go through Byeee I recommend for anybody who is worried about what will happen Byeeee
Read this in about 10 minutes, but I have to say that this is the best and most age appropriate book for girls aged 8/9/10/11 about puberty and sex that I have read and will definitely be giving this to my daughter to read - very well worded and straight forward....
