Book Reviews of The Care & Keeping of You: The Body Book for Girls (American Girl Library)

Book Review: It depends...overall great book!
Summary: 4 Stars

Hi,
My grandmother bought this book for me when I was around 10 or 11, the book then was very exciting to me, even though the topics about brushing your teeth, and your hair, we already know. But Anyone from ages 9-12 should read this book, yeah it has some cheesy sayings but if you are just looking for a book about periods, emotions, feelings, your body this is a great book, I am 12 year old now and me and my friend that is three years older than me find this book helpful, but it depends on you and your child I suppose, if it is really mature for it's age I would consider a book that has more advanced topics, but this book is great! It teaches about knowing you are, and not buying in to those spam weight lose programs, lots of girls face this, after seeing hundreds of models they think only "real" people look like that, but really everybody is beautiful! I would recommend this book any day!!!!
