"Boys" Book Gets Praise

The May issue of School Library Journal features a very positive review for the newest book in Lynda Madaras' What's Happening to My Body? series, On Your Mark, Get Set, Grow! This puberty guide written for boys ages 8 and up receives the following praise:

In this much-needed companion to her "Ready, Set, Grow!" (2003) guide for girls, Madaras draws on her experience teaching sex education to inform boys. The age-appropriate presentation includes cartoon art on almost every page and a sprinkling of humor. A reassuring tone pervades the text...An excellent resource for both children and parents.
