Other books give you the facts -- BEING A GIRL tells you the truth

Being a girl is awesome. It can also be really, really hard. And no one knows that better than girls who are going through it right now. From BFFs to Mean Girls, selfies to self-esteem, pimples and periods and peer pressure, Being a Girl tells it like it is. Friendly, funny, reassuring, and totally honest, this is the book mothers will wish they had had when they were younger, and the one girls will turn to again and again.

Industry Reviews

..".Correll's quirky cartoons create a lively presentation. Long's frank, sympathetic advice will be welcomed by girls seeking affirmation during a time of change."(Publisher's Weekly)" "Empowering, fun, and helpful a title teen girls will be sure to cherish."(Jenny Berggren, School Library Journal)" "Correll's quirky cartoons create a lively presentation. Long's frank, sympathetic advice will be welcomed by girls seeking affirmation during a time of change." (Publisher's Weekly) "This breezy primer, peppered with Correll's genial cartoon illustrations...is a good starting point for younger teens, and Long's ultimate message--there isn't one right way to be a girl--is a good one." (Sarah Hunter, Booklist) "Empowering, fun, and helpful--a title teen girls will be sure to cherish." (Jenny Berggren, School Library Journal) "[The book] helps young girls with the adorable illustrations and the information about what real girls face...My daughter told me she likes this book a lot because it covers topics she doesn't always want to talk to me about." (Kelly's Thoughts on Things Blog) "When I had finished the book, I knew more about myself... It felt like I was talking to a real girl/woman who has been there before...The book felt very personal. I loved everything about Being A Girl. It is one of the only books about this kind of stuff that isn't: A) a boring book of facts or B) super cheesy...I recommend it for (GIRLS!!!!!!!!!!) ages ten to fifteen." (Farrah - age ten, Kids' BookBuzz)
