Book for Girls: Revised Edition Review: Just what I was looking for - I just got this book in the mail, which I ordered for my 11 year old daughter. It covers everything girls should know by the time they are twelve or thirteen. The book describes "what's happening to my body" clearly, and without talking down to the reader. The pictures are accurate pencil drawings, not ridiculous cartoons like I have seen in some other books. I appreciate it, as it explains "sex" in a detailed way, which will spare me the having to watch my daughter's face contort while I try to explain how the P. gets into the V. She'll be able to read it in the privacy of her own home, and be able to use it as a reference on an ongoing basis. The book also covers many other useful topics, like appreciating your body the way it is (by eating well and NOT dieting), what boys go through in puberty, and "body hair, perspiration and pimples." I would have loved a book like this at that age. In sixth grade, I remember spending a lot of time talking about and giggling about "sex," all the while having virtually no idea what I was talking about. My main sexual education came from school (watered down and P.C.) and the book "Scruples," which I got a hold of from a neighbor at around 14. I want my kids to have better information than I did! Regarding age: each kid will be ready for this book at a different age. My nine year old daughter is still very much a `kid,' and this book would be way over her head at this time. But there are some girls I have seen who are quite mature by the time they are 10. So you have to judge for your child. But I think certainly, this type of information should be made available by the time a girl is 14, at the latest.

I have to say, personally - I would not have read it in the order it's presented. I wish I had taken more time when it came to look through the book before starting it with my daughter. My daughter is 10 and I would have started with the breast development, puberty growth spurt, and a few others - not here are all your parts, the boy parts, and this is sex! However, if you're getting this for an older girl that's already gone through the puberty phase and is wondering about sex that might be what you're looking for (and then I imagine she may not be as interested in the other chapters I mentioned). All in all, this gives a lot of very good information, explained well, and has simple diagrams. So far, my daughter loves it when we read it. It's something I keep in my room and when it's time I read it with her (to be able to talk or answer questions more). I don't recommend reading this in the order it's presented, but I think I already said that. : ) ## Frequently Bought Together - What's Happening to My Body?
