Featuring friendly narration (with a Spanish language track option) and simple animation, Let's Talk Puberty for Girls offers a brief overview of the various physical and emotional changes girls can expect during this key developmental stage. Presented in a Q&A format, the program covers standard topics such as menstruation, nutrition, and the need for sufficient sleep, but also looks at shifting roles in relationships with family and friends. In addition to delivering solid practical advice, this short guide encourages viewers to discuss issues with trusted adults. DVD extras include clips from an unfortunately dated 1991 live-action film about puberty, as well as a more in-depth discussion of human reproduction. The companion volume Let's Talk Puberty for Boys is also newly available at the same price (or together with Let's Talk Puberty for Girls—DVD: $89 or VHS: $79). Recommended. Aud: I, J, P. (E.
