(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Clare Owen. In this logical follow-up to Making a Baby (rev. 9/21), Greener and Owen turn their attention to puberty and the changes that happen to “many people born with a vulva” and “many people born with a penis” (there is also mention of intersex people). As in the first book, both text and art carefully avoid gender stereotypes and assumptions. Topics covered include menstruation, erections, boundaries, friendships, and online behavior. Owen's cleanly rendered art includes people of different races, genders, shapes, and abilities. More about gender identity and online safety is appended, as is a glossary.
