Synopsis
A modern and inclusive guide to help every child understand their journey from childhood to being a grown-up.
Growing up is a natural part of life, and every child deserves to understand the different ways their body may change as they grow older. While puberty happens to everyone, every child's journey from childhood to being a grown-up will be as unique as they are!
In this honest, accessible, and inclusive illustrated guide to puberty, young readers can find out exactly what they and their peers may experience as they grow up. From getting taller and discovering hair growing in new places to developing breasts, experiencing periods, or having wet dreams, this book provides the perfect stepping stone for every caregiver to have an open conversation about what puberty really means.
Working closely with a leading national LGBTQ+ organization as well as a biology specialist and a diversity, equality, and inclusivity consultant, Growing Up covers everything from biological sex and gender identity to physical changes and emotional development, including sections on friendships and emotional health, creating and respecting boundaries, and online safety.
Written in friendly and accessible language that can be shared with a child or read independently, Growing Up alsoincludes a further reading section and glossary to answer more complex questions, as well as a resource guide where young readers can find help from trusted sources outside of the home or school environment.
