Book excerpt: Learning and teaching is the only way to make menstruation taboo free so we came up with this creative idea of writing a kids and teenager friendly book that will bring awareness in young girls who are just taking their steps into puberty or already reached an age where they should be knowing all facts about Periods & Menstrual Hygiene. Comic books visually display narration and create more impact on young minds, it remains etched in one's memory for a longer time. We all remember comic books and story books we read in childhood and their teachings. This book is an attempt to break cycle of myths and misconceptions related to menstruation. This book is an effort to explain our young girls in a creative way about the biology of their bodies, what periods are, why it happens and how it’s completely natural, important and healthy process and most importantly it will explain why period is completely normal and it should not affect their day today life and they can do all the activities and should not feel restrained. It allows girls to be prepared for their first period. They usually get scared and are misinformed. Proper menstrual hygiene keeps girls in school. Educating girls and women about feminine hygiene and biology helps to bust myths and cultural superstitions.
