Bøker av Julie Ann Veinot

You've never read a puberty book quite like this. We guarantee it.* This brightly coloured, candid resource covers puberty and growing up in a gender diverse way so folks can learn about their unique bodies, as well as the many bodies around them. Frank and sex positive, there is nothing we won't discuss. Even discharge. Even period poops. Unlike other puberty books, though, we talk about buying your first binder and safe ways to minimize your chest. We explore how to come out if you think you're part of the 2SLGBTQ* community. Many chapters have a Q & A section created from questions real youth have asked during our workshops, like "Can I snort birth control?" and "What is a stand to pee?" We think everyone will learn something from this resource, whether they're 14, 44, or 94. You're never too old to learn new things about your body. We look at puberty with a gender diverse lens that recognizes that humans are wonderful and complicated creatures, the way nature intended. You included. This book was written for junior high students, and designed to be easily readable. However, many parents and caregivers may find it a valuable resource.
