Going through puberty? Thinking about puberty? Worried about growing up? This book is for you!

Knowledge is power! All the information you need is here, plus advice, wisdom and lots of questions from girls like you:

- Body-basics (like breasts, spots and periods)
- Life's big mysteries. Is how you look important? Is a crush ever wrong? Is it bad to be jealous of your friends?
- Clear, empowering info on emotions, sex, sexuality and gender
- Staying safe and having fun online
- Plenty of space for your own notes and doodles

Puberty isn't just about what's going on in your body, but also your brain, your emotions and the world around you.

Sophie Elkan has a background in Marketing and PR and now works in communications. She started her career working on women's magazines, including Marie Claire, as well as teen titles Mizz and 19. Laura Chaisty is a qualified Art Psychotherapist with over fifteen years of experience working in the National Health Service. Dr Maddy Podichetty is a GP based in Oxford. All three are mothers of girls. Flo Perry is a freelance illustrator and writer. She's a former editor at BuzzFeed, and has a passion for drawing funny pictures, especially about boobs and cats. She lives in London with her girlfriend, her best friend and a large, annoying, deaf cat.
