Synopsis: Embarrassment can do one! This entertaining guide to puberty gives you all the information you need to hold your head up and enter puberty armed with solid facts. Puberty need not be scary and unknown. With a colourful and cool design, and bite-size text with attention-grabbing numbers and visuals, find out the facts and stats behind growing up, from how much extra hair you'll grow, to how puberty might make you feel, and what happens when puberty hormones kick in. Written in a straightforward, down-to-earth way, this book will give you all the information you need to understand and be reassured by any changes puberty throws at you. The book emphasises body positivity and reassures you that everything you are experiencing is totally normal! It also includes a section on gender identity and sexuality. For children aged 9+, this book is an excellent resource for the PSHE curriculum, and the 2020 RSE curriculum, including consent. While it is perfect for parents, teachers and carers to use for discussion topics, it is also accessible for children to read for themselves.
