Excellent, Oct 31, 2009 This title is very appropriate. It is directed to girls who are entering preteen years. It covers your body parts and how to take care of individual body parts. For example, it will cover hair care, washing hair, combing hair, what split ends are and what to expect with your hair as you go through puberty. It covers every part of a girls body down to her toes.
I particularly like that this book has little drawings to illustrate the points. They do not use real life models so that your daughter will be looking at a drawing to see what she might look like in a few years, not a model that is probably unrealistic at best.
This book is a great start for young girls as they begin to ask questions about their body or notice changes in their body. I think that if you feel completely uncomfortable talking to your daughter and all she got was the information in this book, she would have a good handle on the very basics.
I believe that there is more you can say and discuss with your daughter as she grows, particularly along the lines of feelings, emotions, etc.This book glosses or very generally covers some of the emotions tied with a changing body.
Well worth the money.
Enjoy.
The Care and Keeping of YOu Oct 14, 2009 This book has alot of imformation and an easy way to explain the things perteens go though.
an absolute must have for girls! Sep 25, 2009 I bought this book for the near future. Girls are growing up much faster than they did when I was a child. There is so much GREAT information in this book. It should be used in schools. Nothing is missed and they discuss the details in a way that a girls can understand and opens up the opportunity for talks between moms and daughter or even dads and daughters!

Good info, but some graphic details included... Sep 18, 2009 This is a good book filled with some great information. I purchased it intending to open up discussions about her body with my 8 year old daughter, who has had some of "those" questions lately. There is a lot of great stuff, HOWEVER, I was quite shocked when I discovered the picture (cartoon-ish, but still!) that explained how to insert a tampon. That is way more info than I want my 8 year old to have at this point. Good for older girls, or younger girls who are actually developing in that way, but not good for the younger girls who are just curious about what's next!
very pleased Sep 14, 2009 I was very happy with this book. I bought it for my almost 9 year old daughter. We started reading it right away. She really got into it. She learned a lot and it helped to break the ice on certain subjects that may not have come up yet. I would definately recommend the book to any young girl to prepare her for changes that she will go through.
