Description
Getting your period for the first time can be mortifying, weird and messy - and asking questions about it can be even worse. But it doesn't have to be like that!
Packed with honest advice on managing Aunt Flo like a boss, WELCOME TO YOUR PERIOD inducts pre-teens into the secret society of menstruation: from demystifying what cramps feel like, to whether you can feel it coming out, to what you should do if your pad leaks on to your dress. With equal measures of warm, big-sisterish wisdom and medical myth-busting, there are tons of case studies, first-person accounts and questions, making it the must-have book for every pre-teen.
A frank, funny and age-appropriate illustrated guide to getting your period.

I liked this book because I am starting puberty myself, and I was petrified about all the changes. I like how the writers include advice throughout the book. -- Eva, age 10More details
