‘Twoje ciałopozytywne dojrzewanie’ in Spanish

A translation of two children’s books Twoje ciałopozytywne dojrzewanie (“A Body-Positive Guide to Puberty”) – a version for girls and a version for boys – has been published in Spain by Barbara Pietruszczak with illustrations by Anna Rudak. The translation by Joanna Ostrowska was supported by the Book Institute as part of the ©POLAND Translation Programme.

In Spanish, the titles of the books read: Pubertad positiva para chicas and Pubertad positiva para chicos. They were published by the Spanish publishing house Editorial el Pirata.

A Body-Positive Guide to Puberty is a series of guidebooks written for younger teenagers whose bodies are starting to change and whose hormones are running wild. The authors have set themselves the task of providing pubescent young people with a sound and accessible knowledge of the changes that are happening within them. The books also aim to help teenagers talk about their bodies and emotions without shame and in an open way.

Barbara Pietruszczak is a journalist and author who specialises precisely in writing about the body and puberty. She is involved with the magazine ‘Kosmos dla dziewczynek’, among others. Anna Rudak works at the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdansk and is an illustrator who has worked with many brands, including Medicine, H&M, and Converse. She also illustrated Anna Garbal’s Atlas miast Polski (”Atlas of Polish Cities”).
