normal: Changing bodies, growing
up, sex, and sexual health.
Somerville, MA: Candlewick Press.
It's Perfectly Normal has been updated to ensure kids and teens have the most up-to-date information about their changing bodies. The book is divided into six sections: What Is Sex?, Our Bodies, Puberty, Families and Babies, Decisions, and Staying Healthy. Additionally, it has an index to help when searching for a particular topic. It has sold over one million copies.
This book is very informative for kids 10-14 years. I feel this is a great resource for kids who may have questions about what is happening to their bodies, but are embarrassed to ask someone about it. Harris has a few other books that answer questions about birth (It's NOT the Stork! for ages 4-8) and reproduction (It's So Amazing! for ages 7-10).
Harris shows the physical development that adolescents will go through. She tells how the bodies change during puberty and feelings that may be awakened with those changes.
