What is The Boys' Guide to Growing Up about?

Puberty can bring surprising changes, from spots, body hair and a deeper voice to new feelings and mood swings. This friendly, straightforward guide explains what happens during puberty and reassures boys that everyone develops at their own pace. It covers hormones, personal hygiene, shaving, healthy eating, exercise, privacy, confidence, sex and reproduction. With clear explanations and supportive advice, it helps readers understand their changing bodies, manage their feelings and feel more prepared for growing up.
