 Growing Up - Puberty November 24, 2008
This journal has fill in the blanks/quizzes and opens up discussions for girls about what is going on with their bodies during puberty. The recipient was 10-years-old and she really felt more informed and comfortable knowing that she was not the only one going through puberty as there are also testimonials in the book from girls her age. This book was worth the buy.
 Good for 10 year old girls September 9, 2008

I bought this for my daughter who is 10. She is not showing any stages of puberty but I thought it would be a great way to follow up on our discussions about her upcoming changes. This book has a number of worksheets which encourage the reader's thoughts and feelings on all sorts of subjects. It also is very good at explaining that all girls are different and all develop at different ages. I think it gives the right amount of information for my duaghter; not too much, not too little.
Great Information and workbook to start a discussion August 22, 2008

My 9-year-old daughter recently read this book. She has been filling in all of the workbook pages and she has used some of the topics to start conversations with me. There is enough information to make her well-informed and comfortable with the changes that will be coming soon, but not so much that it has overwhelmed or scared her. She has even laughed out loud in a couple of places. I see her using this as a reference book for many years to come. I have also purchased a copy for my younger daugher and I plan to give it to her in a couple of years.
