The Period Book by Karen Gravelle

"Everything you don't want to ask (but need to know)"

Karen Gravelle and her fifteen-year-old niece, Jennifer Gravelle, have written a down-to-earth, practical book that answers any questions a girl might have about her period, from what it is and what it feels like, to how to choose a form of period protection, to how to talk to their parents about it. 

The Period Book will guide one through all the physical, emotional and social changes that come with a period, as well as related issues such as dealing with spots, mood swings and new expectations from friends and family. 

Debbie Palen's funny and sympathetic cartoons ease the confusion and exasperation one might feel and celebrate the new sense of power and maturity that a period can bring. 

Perfect for sharing, The Period Book is a trusty friend that can help one feel happy and confident about this new phase or their life.
