"Jessica Biel wants to get people talking about periods. Her new book, A Kids Book About Periods...aims to help parents kick off that sometimes awkward but important conversation with their kids so they can understand how their bodies work, while also normalizing talking about a topic that's often considered taboo: menstruation." - Yahoo! Life


"The result is a straight-forward, easy-to-understand, and informative book that parents and adults can give or read to kids." - GLAMOUR

"As part of her ongoing period education and continued attempts to de-stigmatize menstruation, Biel wrote a book all about periods, aimed at educating children about both their and other people's bodies." - Marie Claire
