Here’s what others are saying about the new edition…
Don’t just take my word for it. Listen to what others are saying:
“Puberty: The Wonder Years 2021 maintains the quality puberty education of the previous versions and is spot on with expanding into needed areas of gender, inclusivity, and consent. I am so impressed!!! The inclusive language for intersex is well written. Love the use of some of the AMAZE videos. I am looking forward to previewing the optional lessons when they become available.”
Mary Ellen, Sex Education Supervisor and retired teacher
“This new format is incredibly easy to access and use and the updated curriculum is a comprehensive, research-based, developmentally-appropriate and positive approach to puberty and sex education that helps fill an extraordinary need in the field.”
Laurie Bechhofer, HIV Education Consultant, Michigan Department of Education
“This succinctly describes what Puberty: The Wonder Years curriculum is about…advocating for dignity, respect, and sexual health for self and others.”
Natalie, California
