Thiébaut E. Mesjachnye: tvoe lichnoe prikljuchenie!

Author Thiébaut E.
Title Mesjachnye: tvoe lichnoe prikljuchenie!
Description Those days? Critical days? Why not say it plainly: periods, or menstruation. In this funny but informative little book, small enough to fit into any bag, you will find answers to the questions that concern every girl:
What is happening to my body?
Will it hurt?
Which hygiene products should I buy in advance?
What if there is a leak?
What if my stomach or head hurts?


And those who already know the answers to the questions about physiology will discover many interesting things here about the cultural and historical aspects of menstruation.
Why do sanitary-pad advertisements show blue liquid being poured from a flask, and not red?
Does PMS really exist?
Why is the subject of periods still taboo in many cultures?
What superstitions about menstruation did our ancestors invent, and what does Artemis have to do with it?

For middle school-age readers.

Élise Thiébaut is a French journalist and writer, known for her books on women’s rights, menstruation, and the cultural taboos surrounding the female body. The book is ranslated to Russian by Victoria Bachevskaya.
