This is a great introduction to bleeding, and I managed to learn a few things even as I race towards menopause. It's cheerful and matter of fact, recognizing but never catering to the taboos around menstruation and puberty. In short and energetic sections accompanied by diverse illustrations it tells what to expect, what is going on, variations that are normal, questions that often come up, options and how to evaluated each on (options on different sanitary supplies to different ecological concerns to different pain relief possibilities, etc). Transgender people are included, as are different cultural expectations.

This would be great to share with anyone, although I guess girls would get the most practical use from it. Boys would learn a lot and maybe know how to be better allies.

I realize it's an integral part of puberty, but maybe not necessary in a "Welcome to Your Period" book, especially for young girls.… (plus d'informations)
