Growing up brings many changes-but no girl should face them with fear, confusion or shame.
Growing in Grace: Volume Two-My Changing Body is a respectful, age-appropriate and faith-centred guide that helps girls understand the physical changes associated with puberty. Written for girls and the parents, caregivers and mentors supporting them, this volume explains body development in clear and reassuring language.
Girls will learn about:
• Puberty and individual development timelines
• Personal hygiene and body odour
• Gentle care for the skin and hair
• Menstruation and the menstrual cycle
• Preparing a practical first-period kit
• Managing period discomfort and recognising when to seek help
• Healthy food, physical activity, rest and body confidence
• Protecting privacy, dignity and personal safety
Each chapter combines accurate educational information with practical guidance, reflection questions, mother-daughter conversations, Christian encouragement and reminders about seeking support from trusted adults and qualified health professionals.
Growing in Grace: Volume Two encourages girls to appreciate that every body develops differently. It promotes knowledge without embarrassment, privacy without shame and confidence without unhealthy comparison.
This is more than a puberty guide. It is an invitation for families to have honest, compassionate and faith-filled conversations that prepare girls to approach their changing bodies with knowledge, dignity and confidence.
