Review:

Currently, it shouldn’t be taboo to talk about having a period or a menstrual cycle. It’s a good time for girls to learn about and celebrate their bodies. Young girls need to learn about puberty, hormones, products, and how to manage their periods. 

Set up like a graphic novel, this colorful guide answers questions and provides tips for young girls on how to prepare a period pack and how the uterus works, and even what all females go through once a month and why. Parents, teachers, and caregivers can use this perfect guide to teach young girls how to care for themselves and that having a period is a normal part of life and nothing to be embarrassed by. The back pages have a glossary and resources to learn more.
