Everything You Don't Want to Ask (But Need to Know)
Karen Gravelle, Jennifer Gravelle
Illustrated by Deb Palen
More by Karen Gravelle or Jennifer Gravelle
I guess the title is pretty self-explanatory. Any questions that your daughter may have about getting her period are probably answered in one of these chapters: Changes of Puberty - Those You Can See, Changes of Puberty - Those You Can't See, Menstruation, What to Wear, Seeing a Gynecologist, ''Is This Normal?,'' Menstrual Problems and How to Handle Them, ''What if ...?,'' and What Your Parents Might Like to Say to You.
This is about as user-friendly as a book can get, from the humorous illustrations to the positive, yet realistic, wording of the text. My twelve-year-old daughter (who usually rolls her eyes over books on this subject matter) thought it was ''a definite keeper.''
This book was written by a woman and her fifteen-year-old niece, Jennifer. I loved the advice given by Jennifer: ''I'd just like to say to parents that you shouldn't think about it (menstruation) as the Talk. Think of it as a conversation that you may have with your daughter again and again. There's never a good time for the Talk, but there's always time for a conversation.''
