This nifty activity book is a companion title to WHAT'S HAPPENING TO MY BODY BOOK FOR GIRLS. It contains over 100 quizzes, checklists, games and journal pages about all the changes your body is going through.

You'll find lots of information, several blank pages for writing out your feelings, space for interviewing your parents about how they acted and felt at your age, charts that show the range of how girls grow (and spaces for you to track your own progress), true or false quizzes, and anecdotes and letters from real girls who are going through puberty or have been through it already. The upbeat writing style even makes it fun to read about things you might think are embarrassing.

These exercises are a great way to address your concerns or curiosity about any part of puberty, and to help you formulate the questions you might want to ask your parents.
