Some of the best puberty books for children

kids at a park, ready to read some puberty books

WARNING! This is a really big list of puberty books and it is rapidly growing!

So to ensure you don’t reach overwhelm, you can either look at all of the puberty books listed below or you can look at some more specific puberty book lists (sorted by age and gender).

You can also look at a list of puberty books for boys or puberty books for girls. These lists have been further broken down into the books that do and don’t talk about sexual intercourse. I do this mainly because so many parents ask for a book about puberty that doesn’t include sex.

You can also find lists of puberty books for 8 year oldspuberty books for 9 year oldspuberty books for 10 year oldspuberty books for 11 year olds, and puberty books for 12 year olds.

You can even find a list of puberty books about menstruation and periods.

If you are unsure about how to start talking to your child about puberty, then you have a couple of choices. You can look at the many puberty blogposts that I have written.

If you are looking for more detailed information, then you might be interested in my puberty books for parents. I wrote these books because I found that so many parents had the same questions, and that I was telling them the same thing. So I decided to put it all into a book for them – The Parents’ Guide to Puberty.

You will only find books in this list that are readily available at bookshops today.

You can find more books about different topics in the main list of Sex Education Books for Children.

And if you find this list a little overwhelming, you might want to look at the age-appropriate list of sex education books.

You’ll find more information about sex education in my Sex Education 101 page.

NOTE: Before passing any book to your child or reading the book with your child, you should read it yourself first. I might think it is a great book for a certain age child or that the information is valuable, but you may disagree. You need to choose books that reflect your values and the messages you want your child to receive.
