While it will be several years before 7-year old Kennedy needs to learn the facts of life, I know she’ll enjoy learning and talking about the changes her body will make with her mother. After all, I’m the grandma and I still have days like this! I’m giving this delightful little book to my daughter-in-law today. It’s a book women of all ages can still take lessons from. A perfect opportunity for bonding, growing and learning. It’s a wonderful book for mothers and daughters to read together. The topics are written with colorful illustrations and are easy to understand. The Care & Keeping of You – The Body Book for Girls 2 goes beyond book 1 by covering topics from hormones and pimples to body changes and the menstrual cycle. It’s also a perfect handbook for mothers who may be shy or uncomfortable discussing necessary but personal topics with their daughters. The Care & Keeping of You – The Body Book for Girls 2 can help guide young girls through those pubescent life changes. I never forgot it and was determined my children wouldn’t experience the same.Īmerican Girl has my same determination. What I do remember was an uncomfortable and embarrassing chain of events. I think it was a 60’s thing, or perhaps it sneaked up on my mom as it did me. I, on the other hand, didn’t receive any counsel from home. Our grandson is confident and is counseled well by his parents.

She calmly told him he had a few years (… and giggling under her breath, I’m sure). Our grandson even told his teacher that he was in fact in puberty. They shared with us how they explained to their teacher that they should see the film NOW.

These hilarious outspoken young ‘men’ were furious that they had to wait a whole year before it was their turn to join the elite pubescent crowd. It seemed the 4th grade girls had watched the ever so embarrassing ‘puberty’ film. They were both very unhappy about an event … or more precisely, a non-event that took place at school that day. A few years ago our oldest grandson and his friend were at our house after school.
