Book Reviews of The Care & Keeping of You: The Body Book for Girls (American Girl Library)
Book Review: I just wish it came in separate volumes
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a fabulous book but I wish that it came as separate books for some of the older information. My daughter is 8 and has started to undergo some changes so I got this for her as a way to open our discussion. I read through it prior to reading through it with her and was a little concerned about how she would take the section on mentruation, most specifically how to put a tampon in. I figured if we went through it togther I could explain that this is something that she has a couple years until needing to know and that we would have that discussion when the time came. However, it was definitely the thing that concerned her the most (the pictures are quite graphic) and my telling her it was nothing to worry about (a normal part of growing up) and something we would discuss further when she was older really didn't do much to assuage her fears. So, that being said, I would definitely get this book, it really has some wonderful information. However, if I could do it all over again I would probably remove the section on periods until she is full throttle into puberty, then go through it with her closer to when she needs to know.
