So That's What's Happening

Children are hitting puberty younger than ever before, some as young as 8 years old. So That’s What’s Happening! provides accurate, fun and age appropriate information about the changes which lie ahead. The book covers the physical changes of puberty including why people change from child to adult, when and how the changes begin, hormones, changes to body shapes and sizes, growing hair, changing voices, hygiene, pimples, the male and female reproductive systems and how they work, internal body changes, eggs, sperm and how they meet, periods, erections, wet dreams, keeping healthy, moods, feelings, choices and even getting along with parents. Suitable for boys and girls of any age, this book presents an excellent introduction to puberty for the younger reader as well as the late starter. So That’s What’s Happening! is a warm, all-inclusive book that children will love and adults can relax about. Throughout the book is the message that everyone is unique – and that’s okay!
