The SODAH Kids (and sometimes their parents, too) enjoy reading books. Sometimes they read books that deal with issues they are facing, sometimes they read books for school assignments and sometimes they read just for fun.

This month, we're reviewing Body Drama by Nancy Amanda Redd.

Body Drama
By Nancy Amanda Redd

This is a book that every teenaged girl, and even every grown woman, should have. The in-depth descriptions and technical terms are presented in a humorous way. The easy-to-understand information keeps you engaged and wanting to keep turning the page.

Women who find misinformation on the internet may not know a great deal of what is offered in this book. My favorite parts of this book are the pictures of actual women, in all their glory, and the parts where it gives you other words for common pieces of your anatomy. One page goes into detail about your period, giving you different names for it such as “Aunt Flo is in town” and other amusing terms. This book is very straightforward and presents information in a way that anyone can understand. Only one thing needs to be said: read it!
