“Growing Up: An Inclusive Guide to Puberty and Your Changing Body” by Rachel Greener, illustrated by Clare Owen, shares the journey through puberty with readers who are nearing or going through the process themselves. Leading readers from birth through understanding gender, to dealing with bodily changes, this book strives to make the unexpected somewhat more expected and comprehensible. Discovering how changes happen to not only certain types of people, but all people, enhances the relevance of this book for all people.
Beyond the body and the changes puberty causes, the book also delves into technology, sharing feelings with those who can be trusted, and even incorporates some extra questions and a glossary with more than 20 terms that kids might be interested in learning more about as they grow up and look into what it all entails.
This book is a great introduction to questions children have about growing up, puberty, and other uncertainties that often need further direction.
