A light-hearted comic-strip look at puberty for girls
Navigate through puberty and the changes it brings with these fun, fresh comic-strip books! Each spread explores some perennial puberty topics, such as the first spot, alarming hair growth or mood swings, and explains how and why they are happening, while break-out spreads look at important topics in more depth.
The comic strip approach offers a fresh perspective, provides humour and keeps the mood of the books light, but reassuring and informative. The illustrations will show a range of different body types, encouraging body positivity and self-acceptance. (NB It will be made clear from the beginning that everyone's puberty journey is different and timelines will vary for individuals).
The text and artwork have been reviewed by a medical consultant.
