Everywhere they turn, young girls are bombarded with the message that beauty matters, to their peers, to society, to boys. It can be difficult for them to figure out what 'true' beauty is all about. In this unique and creative book just for girls ages 8 to 12, Nancy Rue answers common questions girls ask in this often-curious stage in their lives. Filled with fun magazine-type quizzes and imaginative activities, The Beauty Book encourages readers to not compare themselves to others, and to make the most of their own best assets. Pretty hair, to shave or not to shave, when to start with makeup--all the interesting stuff is covered. Tattoos, body piercing and the like are discouraged with tact. Braces, glasses and other adolescent woes are discussed honestly. But most important, the message that God-confidenceis beautiful is reinforced on each and every page. Recommended for ages 8 to 12. A companion book to Here's Lily. |
