DON’T SWEAT IT! Every BODY’S
Answers to Questions You Don’t Want to Ask: A Guide for Young People
by Marguerite Crump, M.A., M.Ed.
Puberty can be a pain. Who needs acne? B.O.? Stinky feet? Just when kids are moving from
childhood to adulthood—a time of huge social, emotional, and physical
changes—parts of their bodies betray them. Why does puberty have to make kids feel
(and smell, and look) so bad?
Actually, it doesn’t. Good hygiene can make a big difference in how
kids feel about themselves—and how others feel about them. This
frank, reassuring, humorous book covers the physical changes of
puberty and gives tips on caring for oneself from head to toe. From
dandruff to breakouts, bad breath to germy hands, body odor to the
parts “down there,” and, finally, smelly feet, it helps kids know
what to do and why. Fascinating facts, friendly suggestions, and
funny illustrations combine in a lighthearted approach that kids find
appealing while learning the basics of personal hygiene. Recommended
for all upper elementary and middle-school students, their parents,
teachers, coaches, counselors, and anyone else who cares about kids.
