Meld je aan bij LibraryThing om erachter te komen of je dit boek goed zult vinden. Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. The body book for younger girls is okay. It tells you stuff that your parents would already tell you, example: eat healthier foods such as veggies, fruit, and dairy. Don't have too many sweets a day because it can cause health problems. Also, the book can create girls to be worried for all the changes in their body up along the path to adulthood. This book can give tips for upcoming events in your growth. I would definitely recommend this book to kids 8-10, or for the girls who have started these changes earlier than others. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

So far I don’t like that this is including many examples of insults tweens might use. Such as “tin grin” and “pizza face”. Who even is saying this?
On page 51 a girl says her friends think she is ugly and fat.
Why introduce this kind of thinking?
I think this format is good as a checklist.
It looks unthreatening which could be a comfort to girls crossing over to puberty.
The section on diet reflects the mindset of when it was written. Definitely pre-read this. As some advice is good(almonds) some is..less so(soy).
You need to use discernment with this book. I would not just hand it over-tempting as it may be.
So why do I have this?
It is not anti-family. There are no examples of the current cultural difficulties.
No one book will be perfect because this is meant to be an aid- not to take the place of the parent. It’s not bad as a guide/checklist.
