THE BEST book about body changes for pre-teen girls. It talks about body changes without going into the topics of sex and dating, as so many of the books do. I recommended it to all of my friends with pre-teens and they all agreed. I can't say enough good things about it except I wish thay had written an equivalent one for boys.

excellent, tasteful, and would be welcomed by both the child and the (shy) parent. covers all sorts of topics, from changing body parts, to eating disorders. I can't recommend it enough.

This book was the greatest addition to our daughters' library. This book covers everything for tween girls in a tactful but straighforward manner. Both my daughters and I found the information in the bookful extremely helpful.

I had a similar book to this when I was a child. I ordered this to give to my child, and having read through it I know it will be very helpful in teaching her about the changes taking place within her body.

This is the perfect book for a 9-10 year old girl that is just starting to ask those difficult questions. The book is easy to read and explains everything in a positive,open way. Great for mom and daughters to read together,
