Great Way to Break the Ice (2004-07-17)

I bought this book the day my oldest daughter started her period. I wish that I had bought it before so that she could have been better prepared for what was coming. I sat down with my nine year old and my eleven year old and we read the book from cover to cover. They learned so much from the book. I even learned a couple of things. It is an easy read that covers many aspects of grooming and the menstrual period. Awesome read!

This Book rocks!!! (2004-07-17)

actually my friend had this book, she showed it to me, i was just to embarrased to ask my mom for the book,( i shouldnt be but for some reason i am) but i might ask my mom, because it looks very good, so im probably going to get this book. The only little thing was the tampom section. Anyways i thought it rocked, its perfect for preteens. I recommend it!! :)

FABULOUS BK FOR 9 YR OLD GIRLS! (2004-07-11)

My daughter (9 yrs, turns 10 in Nov) found this bk ON HER OWN at the Library on Friday and her nose hasn't come out of it since. It has opened up conversation betw her and I, where otherwise, I probably would have waited til her first session of "sex ed" coming up in 4th grade this coming year.

She is really interested in it - and has even been better about putting her own deodorant on - flossing her teeth and using mouthwash - and yesterday she said "Mom smell my arms", she said, "I used vanilla lotion!!"!!!

She is missing her fingers on her right hand so putting her hair up in a pony is a bit difficult, I have always done her hair. Yesterday she asked me to use my hair dryer - and she did her hair ALL ON HER OWN!!!!!!!!!!! I was so impressed! She has really learned a lot from this bk!

She's so proud - and for her - a child who hasn't shown a great deal of interest in personal hygeine, it has been a great bk!!

I HIGHLY RECOMMENED! I think I'll actually buy a copy since I have 3 girls.....

PERFECT for girls who are embarassed to ask us (2004-06-29)

I purchased this for my daughter - it's a wonderful resource for her when she is too shy to ask me the question (which is ALWAYS!) I can't recommend this book enough.

A little worried (2004-06-01)

I was looking for a book to share with my 10 year old who is starting to enter puberty, and liked everything about this book except the section on tampon use. I would have preferred she did not learn about tampons from this book.
