Content:
A frank, funny, age-appropriate guide for pre-teens about getting your period, from Dr Melissa Kang (former Dolly Doctor) and Yumi Stynes, creator of the hit podcast Ladies, We Need to Talk. Getting your period for the first time can be mortifying, weird and messy - and asking questions about it can be even worse. But it doesn't have to be like that! Packed with honest advice on managing Aunt Flo like a boss, Welcome to Your Period will induct pre-teens into the secret society of menstruation: from demystifying what cramps feel like, to whether you can feel it coming out, to what you should do if your pad leaks onto your dress. Alongside Yumi's warm, big-sisterish wisdom and Dr Kang's medical nous, there will also be tons of case studies, first-person accounts and questions from real teens. It's the must-have book for every pre-teen (9-12 years) that is guaranteed to make you feel special about getting your period
