Calling the Moon: 16 Period Stories from BIPOC Authors by Yamile Saied Méndez, Aida Salazar

emotional funny hopeful informative inspiring reflective fast-paced

5.0

This is such a good book! I highly recommend for all teens! I loved reading from all different cultures and backgrounds about the traditions and importance of women starting menstruation. There is something sacred and divine in a woman’s body being able to create and sustain life. There are a lot of unknowns and unpleasant things to deal with, but the way many cultures celebrate it is so beautiful to me!
