This friendly, reassuring overview has been updated and discusses everything from how to choose sanitary supplies to what to expect from a pelvic exam. The authors' every-girl-is-wonderfully-different philosophy is reinforced with simple drawings of a diverse group of girls. Included are straightforward definitions and diagrams, teen testimonials, and a parents' guide.

While this story about how Koko Bear copes with his parents' amicable divorce is by no means literature, it may help to guide very young children through the confusing and unsettling changes that divorce brings. Each page of text provides practical tips for parents on helping to keep their children emotionally healthy during a difficult time. Amateurish colored pencil pictures appear throughout.
