Calling the moon : 16 period stories from BIPOC authors  Cover Image Book Book

Calling the moon : 16 period stories from BIPOC authors / edited by Aida Salazar and Yamile Saied Méndez.

Salazar, Aida. (Added Author). Méndez, Yamile Saied. (Added Author).

Summary:

For Angela, it came on the basketball court--while playing on the boys' team. For Penny, it came on a school field trip to the lake (making for some cringeworthy moments of humor). And to Layla's disappointment, it came at the start of her first fasting Ramadan, meaning that she won't be able to fast after all. Whether it spurs silence or celebration, whether the subjects are well prepared or totally in the dark, the young people in these sixteen stories find that getting a period not only brings change to their bodies, it also brings joy, sorrow, self-discovery, and yes, sometimes even gifts.
