I don't know if this is the right place to ask this or not!
I need recommendations for the best book for an 8 1/2 year old girl that discusses periods/body changes in puberty without any references to sex/making babies. My DD is one of the oldest in her year, but very innocent. I expect body changes will start happening in the next school year and I think I should discuss periods with her, but I don't know how to start without freaking her out! Any suggestions re books & broaching the subject without scaring them (how do you actually explain it, talking about blood, so that they understand it's not scary and doesn't hurt!).
