}}
Every young girl will face her periods starting but it’s the preparation which goes on beforehand which will determine whether or not this is seen as the body developing naturally or a problem. Both are attitudes which are likely to stay through life and it’s obviously better that it’s the firmer rather than the latter. ‘’Have ''Have You Started Yet’’ Yet'' gives factual information in an informative and reassuring manner and in a form which is easily readable to girls of about nine years old and above.
This is a revised edition of a classic title first published in 1980. Despite the fact that menstruation is common to all women it’s still clouded by rumours, embarrassment and old wives’ tales. There are clear explanations of exactly what periods are, why they happen and how they will affect you, not just physically, but emotionally too. It takes the questions which young girls need answering and provides simple and practical advice on everything from exercises which might help to ease cramps through to how to cope if your period starts and you have no protection with you.
