Its topics range from body basics, including periods and skin changes, to questions about appearance, crushes, jealousy and anxiety. The book also offers information on sex, sexuality and identity, alongside advice on staying safe online. Questions from girls and space for personal ideas and doodles give the guide an interactive element, making it a broad introduction to the practical and personal questions that can accompany growing up.
