"Genre: nonfiction; reference material Topic: hygiene, exercise, self image, friendship, puberty, Theme: taking care of one's body, liking oneself for who one is Illustrations: the illustrations are bright and colorful. They are supportive of the text, and they also add another layer of information to the book. Use: independent reading, research material Reading level: Fluent Literary elements: short articles
Thoughts:
The Care and Keeping of You: the Body Book for Girls is a reference book for young girls about to enter puberty. It covers topics ranging from hygiene to exercise to self-image. It gives necessary information but doesn't go into too much detail on sensitive topics. Certain sections may still need a parent's approval.
It is definitely a book for fluent readers. There are multiple lines of text on each page. The words are multi-syllable and not high frequency words. The text jumps around on the page."
"This is a very good book for girls as they are heating those pre teen years. it is the what to expect when ..." book for young girls. It goes through all the things a girl will go through with body and emotional changes. What I really liked is it does not talk about sex When I was searching for a book to help my girls I found so many did in great detail talk about sex not what I want my 10 and 11 year old to hear about. This is an American girl book they are suppose to have one out for boys to so I will have to check in to that one in another year or so."
"If you could give a book 10 stars - this would be it!!!! My daughter is 9 years old and I am already seeing her grow into a young woman and I didn't have a clue how to approach the things she would need to know as she grew up. This book is a parents' manual to those things. You MUST get this book for your little girl! It is detailed with great illustrations and covers so much. My daughter took to it right away! This book is on my TOP 5 list!"
"I got this for my daughter a while ago and I think it does an excellent job introducing lots of subjects about the body and how to care for it. It discusses more intimate subjects like developing breasts, pubic hair, periods, and even gives step-by-step instructions for how to put in a tampon and advice on shaving your armpits. However, most of the book deals with easier subjects, such as taking care of your hair, being active, eating right, and more. It does not discuss sexuality at all. I HIGHLY recommend all mothers of pre-adolescent girls buy this for their daughter"
