Leff, C. (2019). Celebrate your body 2. Emeryville,
CA: Rockridge
This book is a puberty guide for tween and teen girls ages
10 to 18. Puberty is one of the first
signs that you're growing up and that's something to be celebrated. From bras and braces to budding romantic
feelings, this guide stands out among puberty books for girls as you become an
expert on everything from pimples to peer pressure. Of all the puberty books
for girls, this one will help you discover how your changing body is beautiful,
special, and simply on the way to becoming the number one you.
Celebrate Your Body 2 goes beyond other puberty
books for girls. Not only does it discuss
what happens to a girl’s body when she begins puberty, begins ministration and
how reproduction works, it goes beyond. There
are chapters on how your brain changes during puberty. It discusses relationships with friends both
boys and girls. It discusses hygiene and
how to take care of feminine hygiene, but also the importance of clean hair,
brushing your teeth, wearing clean clothes, and eating healthy. This book covers every aspect of being a
healthy teen, mental and physical.
Being the mother of two teenage girls, I wish I had found
this book before puberty. I am impressed
on how much detail this book goes into.
It shows a girl how to put on and take off a pad and how to put in and
take out a tampon. It is the job of a
mother to teach those things, but in today’s world, some girls are being raised
by single fathers. This book would be
good for both father and daughter. This
isn’t the kind of book to teach in a classroom, so there are not any teaching
resources for it. It is a valuable
addition for any middle school or high school library.
