From the author of the bestselling Care & Keeping of You series! This book will provide you with the answers that will help you take care of yourself better, from hair care to healthy eating, bad breath to shaving, acne to voice changes, and everything in between. With tips, how-tos, and facts from a real pediatrician, it's the perfect book to help you learn about your body's changes.

Excellent Boy Version of The Care and Keeping of You! I accidentally came across this book via an American Girl FB post. I was so excited to see a boy's version of the girl's book that I know and love. This book didn't disappoint. It is literally the boy version of The Care and Keeping of You. It talks about taking care of your body, the changes you will see in your body, etc. For those who are wondering how in detail it gets with "boy" stuff, there is a two page spread on the different stages of growth and there are cartoon drawings to show each stage (penis/testicle/pubic hair.) There is a section that talks about circumcision and explains what it is. There is also a two page spread that talks about erections, how to hide them if it accidentally happens when you're with people, and there are a couple paragraphs about nocturnal emissions/wet dreams. This book does not go into sex or sexuality, which I love because I don't think that's appropriate for the age group the book is written for. The nocturnal emission part is tasteful and done from a scientific perspective only, i.e. it is a normal part of growing up and it is nothing to be embarrassed about, and don't worry, it's not pee. It doesn't go into anything further than that. Overall I am very happy with this book! Oh yeah- one more thing- there is no "American Girl" branding on the front of the book, but it does have it mentioned inside the front cover, probably where most boys wouldn't read anyway. :)Opens conversation! I purchased this and waited for my almost 10 year old to say something. I caught him reading it and gently asked if he wanted to read it together. We have been reading bits and pieces and making light hearted conversations. This is NOT a book about sex (thank goodness). But it is a great way to discuss hygiene, acne, moods, hair, all the things that as a mom, I've been wondering how I'd do this. Kudos to the author!If you're looking for a book to teach your boy to sneak around and not be open with you----- Definitely disappointed, while I was excited to find a book that covers some "growing up" topics without getting into details about intercourse, I was saddened at the overall tone of the book - the overall tone is "there are all these things you need to do to: make sure you don't smell bad, wear underwear every day, change your underwear everyday so you don't smell, wash your gym clothes with special detergent because you don't want to smell bad to others, clean up nocturnal emissions so no one else will find out, make sure no one sees your erection in the morning by turning your back to others in the room." I see the value in helping our growing boys manage some of these situations, but the overall tone is one of "you must do this" and "you need to do this" - instead of "These things will happen. It is totally normal. If you're embarrassed and find yourself in one of these situations and want to be discreet, here are some options." The last thing I want to instill in my child's mind is that he has to sneak around to make sure no one knows these things are happening. We want to OPEN the lines of communication, not CLOSE them.
