The bestselling guide for preteens and teens now in a Spanish language edition.
The "What's Happening to My Body?" growing-up guides are acknowledged by parents, educators, librarians, and doctors for their unique, nonthreatening style, excellent organization, and thorough coverage of both the physical and emotional issues surrounding puberty and adolescence. And kids love them too! As one fan wrote, "Dear Lynda, I can't believe that you, a mom, knew all this stuff!"
In a reassuring and down-to-earth style, ¿Qué pasa en mi cuerpo? Libro para muchachas covers the body's changing size and shape; the growth spurt; breast development; the reproductive organs; the menstrual cycle; body hair; diet and exercise; romantic and sexual feelings; and puberty in the opposite sex. It also includes information on body types, anorexia and bulimia, sexually transmitted diseases, AIDS, and birth control.
Includes a comprehensive resource section and line drawings. For ages 10 and up.
