Description: These one-page, picture-supported social scripts help preteens prepare for independent self-care and deal with their changing bodies in socially acceptable ways. The book has 40 ready-to-use lessons (stories). Customize the lessons by adding student-specific information, editing the text, and using a photograph in place of the generic picture in the book.
