The Abilene Trail by Ralph Compton

Girls It's Time For a Change is an incredible resource for girls entering puberty and starting their periods. Whether they've already begun their period, or are impatiently waiting, every question they could possibly have is answered with great care and warmth by author Joan Reid. Chock-full of information and covering a multitude of topics, this book is a lifesaver for parents and caregivers of prepubescent daughters. Let's face it. Menstruation is a touchy subject, yet something that cannot be avoided. While one child may be anxiously waiting for the day she starts, another may be full of trepidation and fearful of the changes to come. No worries. The answers are here. Inside you'll find chapters that cover: - The Reality - Developmental Changes - Personal Hygiene - What to Wear - Who to talk to - Tips on which sanitary products to use - And so much more Menstruation is a multi-faceted condition, with symptoms ranging from irritability and discomfort to mood swings and migraine. Your daughter doesn't have to face it alone. Not only does the book's content address the emotional aspect of a girl period, it comes complete with diagrams and full-color graphics to clearly explain the physical transformation. Girls It's Time For a Change is a book every girl needs to have in her library. In addition, it includes a Period Planning Calendar and a Diary for keeping track of her feelings throughout the month. For even more information, she'll be encouraged to visit www.girlsitstimeforachange.com, a website created as a companion to the book.

Suiitable for ages 9-15 yrs

Richards, Dusty: - Dusty Richards grew up riding horses and watching his western heroes on the big screen. He even wrote book reports for his classmates, making up westerns since English teachers didn't read that kind of book. His mother, though, didn't want him to be a cowboy, so he went to college, then worked for Tyson Foods and auctioned cattle when he wasn't an anchor on television. His lifelong dream, though, was to write the novels he loved. He sat on the stoop of Zane Grey's cabin and promised he'd one day get published, as well. In 1992, that promise became a reality when his first book, Noble's Way, hit the shelves. In the years since, he's published over 160 more, winning nearly every major award for western literature along the way. His 150th novel, The Mustanger and the Lady, was adapted for the silver screen and released as the motion picture Painted Woman in 2017. In a review for the movie, True West magazine proclaimed Dusty the greatest living western fiction writer alive. Sadly, Dusty passed away in early 2018, leaving behind a legion of fans and a legacy of great western writing that will live on for generations.
