An honest book about penises, puberty, adolescence, and masculinity from Dr. Lane Hinchcliffe.

This taboo-busting guide is a tool to help both parents and boys have conversations about something we don't discuss often—penises! Growing up is typically considered embarrassing or awkward to talk about, but author Dr. Lane Hinchcliffe has a lot of experience in working with tweens and teens and is here to separate fact from fiction.

In this book, featuring sensitive illustrations by Anna Shepeta, readers and their caregivers will get the answers to questions such as:

• What happens to the male body during puberty?
• What is toxic masculinity and why is it harmful?
• What is consent and why is it important?

Taking a fact-based approach, readers will discover the anatomy of the penis, how to take care of it, along with busting some of the myths that we've all been told about them. It will also give advice about staying safe online, the realities of porn, and why contraception is everyones responsibility.

This book is an essential resource to help kids and families navigate adolescence and puberty.
