They're told girls play with dolls and boys play with cars. Girls are always giggling and cuddling, while boys should be roughhousing and tough.

At this age, our bodies and our minds are changing--we're growing up  \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e By getting to know the students of Class 4B, young readers will learn how their own minds and bodies work.
