Written by autistic author Robyn Steward, this is a detailed guide
for young people aged 9 to 16 on the basics of menstruation.
Created in consultation with young people, an online survey and a
group of medical professionals, this is a book that teaches all
people about periods, which can be a scary and overwhelming issue.
Promoting the fact that everyone either has periods or knows
someone who does, the book reduces the anxiety girls face in asking
for help. It offers direct advice on what periods look and feel
like and how to manage hygiene and pain. It also breaks up
information using flaps and step-by-step photos of how to change
pads and tampons, it discusses alternatives to tampons and pads,
and gives information about possible sensory issues for people with
autism.
