The definitive guide to periods and puberty for girls. Starting to have periods is something every girl faces and is one sign of growing up, but the subject is often clouded by rumours and embarrassment. This book explains exactly what periods are, why they happen and how they will affect you. It asks the questions and gives the answers simply and openly, with plenty of practical advice.
