A comprehensive guide from head to toe, The Body Scoop for Girls covers the basics of puberty and beyond, including:

-The decision to wait to have sex, and the benefits of waiting

-Birth control

-The lowdown on STIs

-Eating Disorders

-Depression and hormone imbalances

-Grooming, from hair removal to hygiene products

Writing in a funny and fresh, girl-to-girl voice, Dr. Ashton has created a totally up-to-date health book that speaks directly to young women and the unique pressures they face today. From a doctor who "gets it," The Body Scoop for Girls makes the road to womanhood an empowering one.
