Description

For boys who are just starting to hit puberty, What's Happening To Me? The Boy One is a guide to explain sex and the changes their body will go through.

This totally revised edition of the bestselling What's Happening to Me? guide comes with all-new artwork and 16 more pages. Written with male readers in mind, it explains puberty in a simple, clear and friendly way, with cartoony artwork and diagrams. Designed to help reassure readers that what they're going through is normal, whether that's coping with a changing body, mood swings, new emotions or even questions about their sexuality and identity.

The writing and art style, and the level of detail given in each topic, has been tailored to be suitable for kids aged 10 and up, who most likely haven't started puberty yet.

Topics covered include: growing taller, getting hairier, shaving, all about penises, sex, sexuality, love, relationships, friendships, hormones, girls, looking after yourself, staying safe and keeping healthy.

Written with expert input from sex educators and gender specialists.

About the Author

Darran spent a decade as children's bookseller in Durham. He studied crime scene and forensic science at university. It's handier than you'd expect. He collects useless facts, and writes about lots of subjects - especially science. He is passionate about stories, music, and will talk about octopuses at great length.
