- Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2024Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseWonderful addition to my library.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2024Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseExcellent Purchase. Book was known to be used and was received I n better condition than anticipated…only yellowed pages from age, as expected. Brought back the early 1970’s for me, when I received my first copy. Misplaced the old one and this copy brought back fond memories. It is extremely educational and helpful for young women. Buy with confidence from this seller.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2017Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseThis is the best book to help young and older women with the ins and outs about our bodies. I bought the new version for my great niece. But got this one for myself. I am very happy with the content in the book. I had a copy of it way back in the 70's and learned a great deal from reading it. So I highly recommend this book to anyone needing information about their bodies.
