Everything A Girl Needs To Know About Her Periods is an informative and interactive book to guide a girl through the changes that accompany her menstrual cycle.The book's contemporary look and down to earth writing style offers an accessible way to provide accurate, easy-to-grasp information about puberty and the menstrual cycle.
Organized into three sections; Body Basics, Monthly Cycle Overview and Common Concerns, the book addresses everything from "Why do I have a period?" and "How do I use a tampon?" to "What if my periods aren't regular?" and "What is an internal exam?".
The cover includes a discreet calendar to record menstrual dates, as well as a wheel that gives a day-by-day explanation of the cycle.
Everything A Girl Needs To Know About Her Periods is a book that parents and advisors will feel comfortable giving to young women to help them understand their periods, reduce their anxiety, and feel more in control of their lives.
I was looking for a contemporary and fun way to talk with my daughter about menstruation. I wanted facts, I wanted science, I wanted something that she could use, not a book that would talk down to her or one that would sit on her shelf.
The presentation of the book appeals to her. She likes getting quick, at-a-glance info on the front cover wheel about what she can expect to happen as she moves through her cycle. The illustrations appeal to her. The information is presented clearly.
The books straddles that sometimes awkward age between childhood and young adulthood. I didn't want to move too fast or too slow and this book helped me help her. I like it and recommend it.
