FOREWORD: 
This book is valuable to provide information about the biological and psychological progress that happens in the life of girls as a result of their physiological development. The purpose of the book is to support girls at puberty on how they need to respond to the wonderful changes that occur in their life. It teaches them how to manage their menstruation and cope up with the accompanying everyday social, physical and psychological challenges so that they can confidently continue their day to day life both at home and at school. Further, the book is an important tool for families to create open discussions about the normal changes in their daughters and the accompanying responsibilities that each family member should take in welcoming these changes. Teachers can also use this book as a supplementary material in life skills education. The stories that are included in the book come directly from the experience of Ethiopian girls aged between 10 and 14. The book is developed in an easy to understand form and with simple illustrations so that girls, teachers and families can read with interest the information contained in it. Ministry of Education.
