Ruby Luna starts her period at 10 years old and keeps a diary for the next two years all about the menstrual products she tries and the things that happen to her and her friends. It is aimed at 10-12 year olds, but would be suitable for any girl starting her period earlier than that. It also covers the transition from primary to secondary school. It is written with humour to keep the topic light and entertaining, but includes lots of information from the impact of diet on periods to when girls historically started menarche (first period) in an accessible way. (/br) (/br)Ruby Luna's Moontime is a follow-on book from Ruby Luna's Curious Journey for 5-9 year olds on female anatomy, but it can be read independently.

"It's great I think it will really appeal to teens too I think it covers a lot of things that girls want to know about. This diary is funny, packed full of useful information and will help girls feel confident about periods and body changes. Great job " Anna (13)

"I had fun reading this book with my mum. There was great practical advice on periods, and I enjoyed reading a story that reflected my own experience of starting my period and transitioning from primary to secondary school." Rosie Davis (12)

"My daughter found the prospect of reading a book about puberty and periods less than inspiring but she has always loved being read to so Tessa's book was just the ticket. At 12 having started her period at 10 she felt super knowledgable when we began to read together. We enjoyed chatting about the story and how it related to her own experience of ending primary and entering secondary school. We also chatted about all the period related issues brought up so cleverly in the book. If you are looking for a novel to share with your pre-teen that is fun, informative and that will bring you closer to your daughter look no further. Although my daughter is 12 we both felt that this would still be a great book for a 9-10 year old, especially if she is an early bloomer. This is a much-needed book - fiction is the best way to teach pre-teen girls about the changes taking place in their bodies and the practical issued that can impact them. Well done Tessa on writing this much needed book." Julie Davis (mum)

"In my capacity of talking to secondary school children about puberty, there is a vast difference in what kids know or believe, so a resource like this will help put the record straight in an enjoyable and educational way." Sharon Sneddon, Lecturer in Reproductive Medicine

"I like the way the diary pointed out that most teachers are approachable and supportive in regard to children who have started their periods, regardless of how young they may be when this happens, and raised common issues such as going swimming at school and when the children are taught about periods at primary school." Mrs Mirbel, Deputy Head of Micklands Primary

Really good value
Size: Large, Color: White
These are great quality. The fit seems true to size. Thick enough to keep you warm but not to thick. Zipper seems to be good quality metal zipper, fabric is soft and washed well. I purchased this to use it for tie dye.

Good Value with a Couple of Nitpicks
Size: X-Large, Color: Black
I purchased this hoodie as a lighter weight alternative to the ones I already own, and it works well for that purpose. The hoodie is comfortable and of a general quality commiserate with the price point. The Nitpicks: The pockets are on the small side. Unless you’ve got huge mitts, your hands will fit. However, if you wish to carry items in your pockets, they may not be secure, particularly during vigorous activities. The hood is a little smaller than typical. I frequently walk while wearing old school headphones and have a slightly larger than average head and consequently the hood can be a bit tight. Not unusable but raising and lowering the hood in this scenario is usually a two-handed operation for me. Maybe not a problem for most, depending on use case and cranial size.

Awesome
Size: Medium, Color: Ash, Size: Medium, Color: Ash
Fantastic value. A lightweight full-zip hooded sweat shirt that fits true to size. I have other hoodies that are much heavier and warmer but I specifically wanted a thin light one I can use for layering. This is it. Don't expect thick heavy material ( including draw strings ). Everything about this hoodie is light. Especially the price! But it's soft, comfortable and warm enough for what it's designed for. Very happy with this.

EXCELLENT SWEATSHIRT & FANTASTIC PRICE👍
Size: X-Large, Color: Deep Red
UPDATE: THE INTERIOR FUZZ JUST WONT STOP WASHING ONTO OTHER ITEMS. I WASH GREY & BLACK SEPARATE, BUT THE 2 ARE JUST AS BAD AS THE RED. I STILL SAY THEY ARE WELL MADE, JUST CANT STAND THE CONSTANT FUZZ COMING OFF ONTO MY T-SHIRT. I purchased 3, red, black & charcoal gray. I like them all but I always prewash new clothes. They are well made and fit perfectly. Hanes has always made great products. I suggest washing the red sweatshirt a few times to rid it if the excess fuzz which is normal. I had to rewash all 3 separately as the red fuzz stuck to the other two. Excellent 👌 price, wash and tumble dry beautifully for me. Highly recommend. 😊

Happy with my purchase!
Size: Medium, Color: Spanish Moss
This is sold in men’s sizes, but it worked out great because it is nice and long to cover the bum area. The medium fit perfectly and I am 5‘6“ tall and about 140 pounds. I have not washed it yet so I cannot say anything regarding the quality but so far I’m very happy with the purchase. I ordered the Spanish moss color and it is a beautiful color for spring. The jacket itself is not heavy, which is great because it is perfect for when you just want something a little bit lighter and not bulky.
