In this age where girls are measuring themselves constantly against their peers and media role models, this book does a good job of giving parents the tools they need to help their girls navigate childhood successfully. It's not easy being a girl sometimes, and the author helps us to know when those times are the most critical and how to help our girls through them.It's good to see a book that addresses specific actions that parents can take at each stage of a girls development to assist her in building a healthy self confidence and self image.Particularly enjoyed and appreciated her advice to work with teen girls but to give them the freedom to make their own decisions and mistakes. Too many of my kid's peers when they were teens were never allowed to make decisions. As a result they were completely ship-wrecked when they went off to college or moved out of the family home for the first time. Good job here hitting what really matters and why in raising girls.Bravo!
