The first book in a new series about growing up has been written for young girls becoming women, who need not feel alone on their journey to womanhood.
Five times world-record breaking hula-hoop star Marawa Ibrahim was told during her teenage years that she was too chubby to succeed as a performer. Today, she is one of the most solicited circus performers worldwide, working with artists from Pharrell Williams to Beyoncé and Kenzo.
Contained within these pages are 50 lessons, anecdotes, and stories about the changes Marawa experienced in her own body during puberty, written in consultation with Doctor Janice K Hillman.
