Put simply, I could not have survived teenagehood without it. Before I read this, I was terrified of pretty much everything and I hated the thought of "growing up."

The book was not condescending, as too many of these "puberty and growing up" books are. It was funny in places. The cartoons made me laugh. A girl could honestly feel like they were having a one-on-one about everything to do with life.

I can't think of a single question I had that it didn't answer, and let's be honest, you don't really want to ask your mother or friends some of these questions. The "F Word" section was great - far too many girls these days have never even heard of Feminism, and vastly misconstrue what it means.

Get your girl this book. Please. Every teenage girl needs a copy. Kaz Cooke, you are a genius. ( )
