Usborne have some excellent books on this topic.
You can see them on their website.

'Hair in funny places' by Babette Cole is a lovely book. Last used it about 4 years ago when I was teaching 10/11 year olds but, from memory, it's a story about a girl going through puberty and it's fun and light hearted whilst still being informative. I think it'd be appropriate for a 9 year old.

There's a good book called 'What's Happening to Me?', which I think is published Usborne. It comes in girl and boy versions.

Interested in this thread?

I read
are you there god? It's me, Margaret. Was quite good, not a factual book but still enjoyable.

I was thinking of are you there god? it's me, Margaret and all the other Judy Blume books not long ago... it was great ! I vaguely recall another one - 'Have you started yet?' No idea who that was by..

Oooh! I heart Judy Bloom!

I still remember my mum reading me the usborne book of growing up when I was about 9 or so. I was the only kid in the school who knew what the word cunnilingus meant Grin.

DD (8) has the 'What's happening to me' book & it is fab! She understands it well & it prompts lots of questions too.
