"The last thing I expected to do while reading this colorful and celebratory book for youth was cry, but as I went through each page I found myself with tears streaming down my face. Tears for my "past pre-teen self" who finally, after twenty years, felt seen... and tears for the next generation of amazing humans who will have this extraordinary guidebook (and Sonya) to hold their hand while explaining how their bodies are undeniably remarkable in every way."—Jes Baker, Body Positive Activist, author of Things No One Will Tell Fat Girls​ and Landwhale"Celebrate Your Body is a wonderful book full of wisdom and affirmation for young girls at a time when their lives are fraught with change. Thank you, Sonya Renee, for writing a book about puberty that is both informative and joyous! What a gift! A must read for the tweens in all of ourlives."—Deb Hauser, President, Advocates for Youth"This book exemplifies the love and care that is necessary to help young people grow into healthy adults.

Puberty comes with a lot of changes. Celebrate Your Body (And Its Changes, Too!) will help girls understand (and love) their bodies now and as they continue to grow.

For many girls, puberty can be an uncertain time. Celebrate Your Body (And Its Changes, Too!) includes everything girls need to know about breasts and bras, their period, hair here and there, feelings and friends, and so much more. This book will guide them as they learn about (and celebrate) their amazing, changing, one-of-a-kind bodies―during puberty and beyond!

Among puberty books for girls, Celebrate Your Body offers encouraging support while answering real questions that girls have about puberty. Positive, judgment-free, and medically accurate, this book discusses puberty in a way to which young girls can relate.

Celebrate Your Body offers essential insight such as:

• An overview of puberty that explains what happens, when it happens, and how she’ll know
• Explanations of changes in body, mood, and relationships―and how to confidently approach these changes that occur in puberty
• Practical advice for navigating new situations during puberty―from understanding growth spurts to managing overwhelming emotions to staying safe on social media

Complete with current, accessible medical information, Celebrate Your Body offers a fresh take on this whole “puberty” thing that will leave girls feeling informed, empowered, and ready for the changes that lie ahead.

This is the book you need. I was going to purchase a different but well - known book about puberty for my daughter, but read quite a number of negative reviews about how that book gave their daughters insecurities about their bodies... which is what I was trying to avoid by purchasing such a book! Celebrate Your Body is the complete opposite! It's informative in a helpful, kind, and realistic way. I highly recommend this book for any parent/guardian of a pre-teen girl.LOOK NO FURTHER for an inclusive, straightforward, age-appropriate, positive guide to puberty! I've researched dozens & dozens of books for my 10y.o niece, and 'Celebrate Your Body' is EXACTLY what I was looking for!Everything in Sonya Renee Taylor's approach is positive and encouraging. She acknowledges many colors and body types and provides just the right amount of detail for a tween/pre-teen reader.*Every other book I researched in this genre had an inordinate focus on appearance & traditional notions of beauty.* Something I wanted to avoid.They also, without exception, addressed interest in "boys" - excluding anyone who might not be interested in boys & reinforcing the confusion they may be feeling about not being "normal." To be clear, the book doesn't encourage or even go into detail on this topic, it simply refers to developing feelings for "someone" using generic pronouns. This is just one example of Sonya Renee Taylor's subtle approach to inclusiveness & cultural sensitivity.If you're looking for an encouraging, straightforward, medically accurate, inclusive guide for your 9-12y.o, This. Is. Your. Book.Adult readers: If you haven't already checked out the author's other book, "The Body Is Not An Apology," I highly recommend doing so. Sonya Renee Taylor is a gift to Humanity ♡A MUST READ FOR GIRLS WHO HAVE STARTED PUBERTY YOUNG My daughter started the puberty train ( as Sonya describes it) when she was about 5. I noticed her leg hairs were getting darker and at the time, I didn't think much about it. And then around 6 it was confirmed by her doctor. She is now 7 and has started growing hair.. now there was no more pushing the talk. After tremendous research and reading countless reviews, I finally settled for this book and I couldn't be more happy with my decision. First and I think most importantly, the book has such a positive outlook on a girls body and the changes they will experience. Second and what I also feel is important, the author often mentions that this changes can come earlier for some girls while later for other girls. I love that she mentions that girls can start as early as 5 or 6. As a mother of a child starting puberty at a young age, it is very important for my child to hear it's very normal from an outside source.I also like that this book didn't cover sexual intercourse and topics related to intercourse because my child is still too young for that talk and I don't have to worry about her stumbling across that in the book. The book was written simply enough that it was easy to understand and felt like you were having a conversation. Younger readers will be able easily follow along. So that goes without saying that this book just just an introduction to their body's and will need another book to cover the other half of the puberty train.
