Designed by Amy Inouye Cool women. Packed full of wonderful women from Nancy Drew, to Dorothy Parker, to Harriet Tubman, Cool Women is about the possibility for greatness in all of us. On a different note, I wanted to include a book for parents and their daughters that provides information about the changes in girls' bodies. From Joan of Arc to Amelia Earhart, all women experience, sooner or later, this rite of passage. With candid explanations and simple illustrations, Period prepares girls and their parents with specific advice about important matters such as menstrual cycles, pelvic examinations, and even more importantly, feelings.
Period answers questions and relates information that parents and girls can really use.
