Growing Up Great!

Help your boys grow up healthy, confident, and kind

Raising boys today comes with new challenges—and more questions than ever. From social media pressures to rising concerns about boys' self-esteem and emotional well-being, parents need trusted tools to share with their sons.

Growing Up Great! is a trusted puberty book for boys ages 8–14, written by National Health Teacher of the Year Scott Todnem. Unlike many guides that only focus on biology, this book takes a whole-child approach—covering body changes, emotional development, and social challenges that shape a boy's future.

Inside you'll find:

• Clear, honest explanations of physical changes, hygiene, and health.
• Support for emotional well-being with strategies like mindfulness, exercise, and creativity.
• Guidance for navigating modern challenges including social media, peer pressure, and friendships.
• Body positivity and respect to help boys value themselves and others.
• Glossary of puberty terms that ensures clarity and confidence in learning.

Growing Up Great! gives boys a reliable, affirming resource that normalizes change, fosters resilience, and builds the foundation for healthy adulthood. Help your son grow up not just informed, but empowered—with a guide that supports his body, mind, and heart.
