Any Body

Did you grow up reading the American Girl book all about bodies “The Care and Keeping of You”? This book is very similar but for a bit older audience (maybe 10-14?). It is also updated to include important subjects like sexual orientation, tattoos, consent, disability, and more. 

I would put this in the hands of any tween. It is informative and interesting with fun facts, and illustrations. But I encourage caregivers to have open conversations with kids during and after the reading of this book because although it covers health information, families may want to add cultural, religious, and other additions that apply to their families too.

(Thank you to the publisher for the copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.)
