There is one thing that puzzles Samira ... PERIODS! She has heard
people talking about them, but has no idea what they are. With the
help of this book and her family, she learns all about that time of
the month! This friendly and reassuring book about periods for
young girls follows the story of Samira as she finds out from her
mum and dad all about when a first period arrives. It clearly
explains why girls have them, what happens in the body to make
periods and what the first signs of getting a period are. This book
demystifies periods, eases worries and provides reassurance that
periods are a healthy part of growing up. The author, Rosie
Kessous, works for Days for Girls (DfG) UK. DfG is an International
Charity providing women's health education, alongside washable
sanitary towels produced by volunteers in developed countries for
those in need. Rosie's training as an Ambassador of Women's Health
Educator and subsequent distribution of washable sanitary pads on a
trip to Kenya inspired 'That Time of the Month'. Rosie realised the
need for a comprehensive, accessible and engaging book for young
girls about menstruation. Rosie is currently working to facilitate
a curriculum to be taught in schools in the UK through Days for
Girls. Arianna Vettraino (Illustrator) Arianna is an illustrator
based in Edinburgh. She believes deeply in the powerful role
children's books can play in helping to educate, inform, and
inspire young people; and hopes to use her illustrations for this
purpose. 'That Time of the Month' is her first children's book
which she created whilst studying at university. After reaching out
to the charity Days For Girls (UK), expressing her desire to create
a book on periods, Arianna was put in contact with Rosie (the
author), who shared the belief that a picture book aiming to
demystify and encourage openness about periods was needed.
