Great Beginning!!

I bought this book for my 8 year old daughter. After previewing several from the public library I found this one to be the best for beginners. I wanted her to have all the info she needed to start into puberty but yet not to much. This book does a great job of explaining everything that will happen as a girl matures. It has great Q & A sections and cute cartoons too. I would strongly recommend this book to any parent looking for the first book to introduce there daughter to becoming a woman. You will not be disappointed!!

Perfect for my 9-year-old

I bought this book for my 9-year-old daughter, who is very shy about talking about anything "private." She quickly read the entire book on her own. Several months later, we read a chapter together. Then she wanted me to read another chapter with her, and another. She giggled at the silly illustrations, and asked questions. It was a wonderful way to start conversations about the experience of puberty. I had thoroughly reviewed this and other books before buying this one for her. The light tone and silly illustrations are just right. The information is sound and covers pretty much what she is ready for--lots of information about her body and the changes it will go through, not a lot of discussion of sexual intimacy or boys' bodies at this point.

Neat Book

I bought this book for my 9 year old special needs child. She liked the pictures...since it's hard for her to understand the words. She understood the pictures, and helped her see that shes not the only little girl going through puberty.

good but...

it was a good book to help me talk to my daughter, but i couldn't rate it a 5 because I don't like the idea of it teaching young girls how to use tampons. It could just be me but i didn't think that was right. But overall it covered all the bases and a few i'm sure I would have missed.

Written for younger girls?

The title states this is written for the younger girls...and the two main reviews mention Grades 3-6 and 2-5. While I agree that the most of the content and text written is perfect for this age group, the one topic of "ma$trbation" is not what I would consider appropriate for a 9 yr old.
