Vulva! Knowledge for below the belt is a courageous, warm-hearted and humorous sex education book for young people who want to understand their bodies better and approach them with self-confidence. Nadine Beck and Rosa Schilling explain clearly, openly and without shame what the vulva is, how it develops, what role the clitoris and vagina play, what happens during puberty and why menstruation, personal hygiene, boundaries and self-determination are important topics. The book not only conveys knowledge, but also appreciation: bodies can be different, questions can be asked, and sex education can be light, empowering and even funny. The colorful illustrations by Sandra Bayer make complex content accessible and accompany young readers through a topic that is far too often concealed or misnamed.
