Publisher's Notes
First Line: "Sometimes between the ages of nine and fifteen, kids' bodies begin to change and grow into adult bodies. Most kids wonder about and have lots of questions about what will be happening to them as their bodies change and grow during this time. It's perfectly normal for kids to be curious about and want to know about their changing and growing bodies."
Industry Reviews
"The author and illustrator manage to be honest without losing their senses of humor. Ms. Harris's text is informal, wide-ranging and candid; Mr. Emberley's pictures are informal, wide-ranging, candid and funny. No fact or image is too embarrassing for them to take on."
New York Times Book Review - Besy Hearne (03/12/1995)
"This book provides a wealth of information in a lighthearted, unselfconscious, and relaxed manner. The charming, plentiful watercolor and pencil illustrations take the subject out of the clinical mode."
Whole Earth Review - Nancy Pietrafesa
"In the non-fiction category, this book has to be the outstanding book of the year. It is the best book I have seen regarding the physical changes that puberty brings, combining needed information with a wonderful and witty course in sex education."
Boston Book Review - Tim Moses (12/19/1995)
