Hi, Im Lynda Madaras and Im Area Madaras.
Were the mother-and-daughter team who put this book together (with a lot of help from our friends). We have also written another book called The Whats Happening to My Body? Book for Girls that explains the physical and emotional changes a girl goes through during her preteen and teen years, as her body changes from a childs to a womans body. This time of changing is known as puberty, and the book explains how and why puberty happens and answers the many questions that have come up in Lyndas sex education classes over the years.
This book is a companion to our other book, though you dont need The Whats Happening to My Body? Book to use this one. This book covers many of the same topics covered in that book, though not in as much detail. The big difference between the two books is that this is an interactive book, with exercises, quizzes, and other activities that will help you learn about the changes that take place in your body during puberty.
Like The Whats Happening to My Body? Book, this book owes a great deal to the many girls and boys who have been students in Lyndas classes at Sequoyah School over the years and to the families who have attended our puberty and sexuality workshops. Much of the material in this book was developed and refined with their help. Indeed, without their kind patience when exercises and activities didnt work out as planned and their enthusiasm when they did, this book would not have been written.
We hope that you (and the friends and family members youll recruit for some of the activities) enjoy the activities and exercises in the book and that it will answer some of the questions youll have as you enter this new stage of your life.

LYNDA MADARAS
AND AREA MADARAS
Youre going through puberty! During the preteen and teen years, girls go through a series of physical and emotional changes as their bodies develop from childrens bodies into womens bodies. This time of changing is called puberty.
This book is about you and the changes that take place in your body during your puberty years. It explains how, when, and why puberty happens and is filled with quizzes, exercises, and other activities for you to do. Throughout the book, youll be asked to record your thoughts and feelings and to write about whats happening to you. In fact, before youre through, this book will not only be about you, it will be by you as well!
We hope that youll have fun with the book, that youll learn a thing or two, and that youll come back to it from time to time as you move through puberty. We hope, too, that youll hang on to the book, and that if you one day have a daughter or another special young woman in your life, youll give her this special puberty book written by and about you!
P.S. If this book is yours, youre free to write in it, doodle on it, or scribble all over it. But if its a library book, youll need to do the exercises and writing on separate sheets of paper or in a notebook.

I have noticed a clear and also a milky white discharge from my vagina. Could you tell me what this means? Im wondering if this is normal.

During puberty, you may start to have a small amount of a clear milky white fluid, or discharge, from the walls of the vagina that may leave a slight yellowish stain on your underpants as it dries. This fluid is called vaginal discharge, and it is completely normal, another sign that your body is maturing.
Vaginal discharge helps to keep your vagina clean and healthy. As well explain in Part 5, the discharge is made up of fluids and cells shed from the walls of the vagina. Just as the skin on the surface of our bodies is constantly shedding old cells, the skin of the vagina also sheds cells. The body makes fluids to wash away these cells and cleanse the vagina. As you go through puberty, the shedding of old cells from the vaginal walls speeds up. More fluid is made, and a girl may notice more discharge from her vaginal opening.
