A review for parents with girls

This book covers just about any topic you need for young girls. I purchased it after reviewing a copy from a friend. My daughter is so gung ho about breasts and this book helped her understand she will get them when she gets them. It talks about everthing thing from the hair on their head to the hair on their toes and everything in between. It is broken down by subject and age. Great book to answer those questions we just are not sure about how to answer.Read full review...

Care & keeping of you

Needed this book for granddaughters entering their pre-teen yrs. I liked the idea is was by American Girl. Very informative book with good explanations. Be prepared for one page with explicit pictures, but this is like a good health book. I feel it will be very helpful to them.Read full review...

Excellent

This book is written perfectly for the age group of girls that are going through changes in their body that they don't fully understand. The colorful graphics make it so much less intimidating to a little girl. I heard about this book and thought it might help my daughter understand what's happening to her body better and I'm glad I purchased it.Read full review...

Great product. Worth every penny and more.

A co-worker recommended the book to me. I bought it for my granddauther that is 11 years old.
I think this book is great for girls that are growing up, it has answers to all the questions that they might not want to ask their parents about growing up.
Very well made. Perfect for a pre-teen.Read full review...
