Celebrate Your Body

Celebrate Your Body (And Its Changes, Too!) is a puberty guide aimed primarily at girls 8–12 that explains body changes, periods, hygiene, and emotions in a straightforward, upbeat tone. Written by Sonya Renee Taylor, it pairs clear diagrams and explanations with affirming messages about body diversity and self-esteem. Parents and educators appreciate its inclusive language and focus on consent, boundaries, and listening to your body. It’s a strong fit for tweens ready to learn about puberty in more depth, either independently or alongside a caregiver. Some families may prefer to skip or discuss certain sections based on their values, but overall it’s a highly recommended modern puberty book.
