This book was an easy way to open a conversation about a difficult topic with my daughter. She found it easy to understand and even asked some questions after recovering from her embarrassment. I would recommend this book to anyone.

Early in the book, it discribes the memory of a girl watching her mom manuever with pads and elastic belts and garters (because pantyhose haven't been invented yet). I am 44 years old, and this was before MY time. Why would my daughter need to hear about that aspect of the growing up process in Chapter #1 of this book. She will have enough new info to digest. This was a great book for it's time, but the time has past. There are better books on the market. This one needs to be revised. (The copyright of my book is 1998.)

I bought this book for my daughter when she was 12, she is now almost 18 and I am recommending it to a friend with a young daughter. This book made it easy for my daughter to read by herself, but also made it comfortable enough for us to discuss together. It speaks in a language easy for pre-teens to understand and relate to, adding a bit of humor along the way. I recommend this book to anyone who is searching for a book that her daughter will WANT to read about puberty and all the "fun" stuff that comes with it!

This book was purchased for my 9 year old daughter who has had friends start puberty already. Since she has heard their side, I decided to buy a book explaining more of what is going on; especially if there were questions she was not ready to ask. After reading the book, she has gained an understaning of what to expect & even had information to give to the girls who have already entered into puberty. There are answers from bra styles to tampons! Although I am not ready for her to grow up, this book has prepared both of us for what will eventually come. I recommend this to all mom's who have pre-teen girls. This book is better than the advice their friends are giving them!

My 12 year old granddaughter could not put this book down. It helped her to understand so many things about herself and growing up in a way that was so much easier for her to comprehend.
