Incredible Book for Tweens and Teens 
This book has a wealth of information for girls. There are a lot of quizzes that encourage a child to participate and buy into what they are reading. It covers more topics that I would even think to instruct my daughter about. I am very impressed with this book and would highly recommend it as required reading for tween to teen girls.

Perfect pitch.
As a new volunteer Big Sister, I hoped this would help break the ice with my "little." We pass the book back and forth every week, each of us doing the exercises and writing comments in the margins. I can barely keep up with her! The author has perfect pitch when it comes to keeping girls interested, enthusiastic, and building self awareness and confidence.

Brave New Girls: Creative Ideas To Help Girls Be Confident,
I am a teacher of troubled middle and high school girls and boys. I have used this book with some of my students. It has given them new perspectives. It is so easy and dangerous to live life according to the assumptions of one's particular culture. This book helps them see beyond that. It helps girls especially see that they can achieve their goals by following the simple exercises. It brings awareness to them of the methods of the media which attempts to characterize them into a single mold. It is introspective and enlightening. I recommend this book for anyone who works with young people and those who care about their welfare.

An excellent resource for teen-age girls!
I was highly impressed by this book and can't wait to use it with my teen-age Girl Scout troop. My daughter (13) picked up the book and read it through. She thought the exercises were interesting, up-to-date and ones that she would like to do herself and with her friends. The situations are very true to the lives of teenagers today and the language is not "preachy" or "fake". I would highly recommend it to any teen-age girl.

Excellent!
Brave New Girls can really build self-esteem and self-confidence. The tone is upbeat and honest, never condescending, and occasionally conspiratorial. Many of the exercises help to see other people's point of view; also included are exercises to help girls value their own opinions. Many of the activities and exercises focus on thinking a problem through, using common sense, and figuring out what kind of person you are. This book suggests all kinds of possibilities for public library programming.
