Product Description

Review

'It's the perfect first book about periods for girls of primary school age as it provides information at the right level.' (Family Interest Parenting, March-April 2004 )


Product Description

Girls Only! focuses on the practicalities of periods, the social and personal implications of starting your period, and the physical and emotional developments in puberty. It tells you what happens and when, what you need to know and how to prepare. It answers all the questions girls are dying to ask, but daren’t, in a clear, friendly way, using real-life examples.

It’s the perfect first book about periods for girls of primary school age as it provides information at the right level. The tone is positive and reassuring and complemented by quirky illustrations throughout.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect book for the younger girl!, 26 May 2005
My daughter had just turned 10 and was having the school nurse come to give a talk about puberty. I had this book at home as a follow up and it was fantastic. The whole feel of the book attracts the younger girl, lovely illustrations and very funky looking too. The wording is spot on - not too scarey or advanced. I wish I had had a book like this thirty years ago. Seriously any mum should order this book if they are in the least bit worried about having 'the talk' - it WILL help!!

5.0 out of 5 stars What a Great Book, 6 Aug 2006
By P. Howlett - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this book for my daughter, aged 11, and this is what she thought. "I thought it was a really great book with brilliant illustrations. It was easy to read and understand and it gave you some tasks to see how much you knew. It was extremely helpful and covered several subjects on growing up not just periods. It told you how to deal with boys, how to cope with spots and mood swings and how to stay friends with your family and friends whilst growing up. Spectacular"

5.0 out of 5 stars Every Mum and Daughter Need this!!, 16 Mar 2007
When I discovered one of my daughter's friends had started, I thought 'I'll have to get sorted'. I tried my GP's surgery, the health visitor, the family planning clinic to mention but a few and all the literature was for teenagers. My daughter is nine. Then I stumbled upon this book. It is fantastic. I read it myself before passing it on to my daughter. This really is super in that the language is at their level and it helps promote a healthy mental attitude towards puberty and all the stuff that comes with it. I have recommended it to many other mums, who totally agree. SO, TO ALL MUMS WITH GROWING DAUGHTERS ... THIS IS A MUST HAVE!!
