Aum loves his big sister, Anu Didi, and the two of them do everything together. But Aum is very puzzled by the way his sister feels unwellonce every month, and is unable to go to school or play badminton with him. What Aum does not know is that his sister has a monthly visitor: menstruation! Join Aum as he learns more about his sister’smonthly visitor, and see him grow into an understanding and supportive younger brother as his sister goes through the changes faced by young women all over the world.This book is written in an effort to increase awareness around menstruation and to reduce the stigma around it. We hope that these pages have helped the reader understand and articulate the body’s natural processes and to realize that ‘menstruation’ is not just a women’s issue - conversations around it need to be normalizedacross diverse demographic groups if we hope to live in a world where people are not embarrassed by their bodies—a world where we feel free and uninhibited, and are able to be both, proud andcompassionate toward ourselves and others!
