* I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review *

This book was one of the best books I have ever read for preteen to teen girls. It was completely informative, easy to read, humerous, open-minded, and nonjudgmental. It started off with the basics, like how your body is going to change and what is normal and what is not. She also stresses that everyone is different and there are absolutely no absolutes. She also addresses make-up, hair, crushes (both straight and gay), dating, sex, and becoming a woman. It was a great book.

There are a lot of books similar to this one out there, but this one was so reader friendly and nonjudgmental that I would recommend it to moms, aunts, big sisters, librarians, doctors, or even girls themselves to buy. A+!
