Very short overview of puberty and relationships for young teens. Compassionate and informative without being preachy.

This is an all encompassing take on puberty and sexuality for youth growing up today. There are five teens represented in this book, who runs the gamut on gender, sexuality and maturity. This makes for insightful comments on thoughts about gender fluidity, and on sexual desire.
They point out that we all mature at our own level and time.
And the sex is a mutual activity, and if it isn't mutual, it is not sex, but assault.
Well researched, and well represented. This will make a good reference book, one that is easy to read, and get answering to questions about growing up.
Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.

In a time and age where children and tweens are loving graphic novels, incorporating graphic novels about important topics - such as their development - is an amazing way to ensure kids are learning what they need to about themselves and their bodies.
This graphic novel is detailed, well-illustrated, and incredibly important for tweens.

Very cute. The informal style makes subjects more approachable. Didn't skimp on important (frequently skipped) bits like consent, gender identity, orientation, pleasure, and emotions. While it was informal in style, the information itself was very straightforward and included various views on topics that can have a spectrum of experiences.

I capslock LOVE this book! It does such a great job of talking about puberty and relationships without getting into the weird essentialist weeds on "boy bodies" and "girl bodies" that you so often end up with in puberty books.

A great intro into questions teens 11-18 may or may not have with a laid back tone for discussing them.
A must consider for libraries.
