A super-important guide for girls - written by teens for teens.
Check it out: not just a book about sex, but a look at girl culture by
teenagers. No stuffy school textbook. No nosy adults. Just a diverse
group of teen girls from a community youth project who had questions
about sexuality.
To find answers, they collected stories, poetry, and artwork from other
youths. They also interviewed frontline health experts to get solid
facts about the personalities and pressures that young women have to
deal with. It's a great mix of real-life examples and life-saving info.
Topics include:
- Relationships
- Periods
- Sex
- Birth control
- Pregnancy
- Sexually transmitted infections/AIDS
- Sexual assault
All the content has been vetted by doctors, and the book is endorsed by
health professionals - so girls know they're getting good info. There's
also a section with places to contact to find out more. It's all stuff
that young people need to know.
The Little Black Book for Girlz is an important, take-anywhere
empowerment guide. Girls shouldn't leave their teen years without it.
