SuitabookComing of age

- Reading
- Read a section at a time, then use the summary chart to compare examples; pause at unfamiliar terms and check the glossary together.
- Themes
- Comparing coming-of-age customs: The book sets out practices from several religions and secular cultures and provides a chart for comparison. Its stated structure is comparative and informational, rather than a narrative about one person’s experience.
- Worth knowing
- Puberty and initiation rites are named topics. If these subjects are new to your child, you could first ask what they already know and want to understand.
