The Talk

So does anyone else have little girls that are coming upon puberty? I don't exactly think we are there just yet. Her pediatrician agreed when I took her for her 9 year check up back in May. I was also a "late bloomer" so fingers crossed Mere will be too. But to prepare us for the "talk" (I am in no way prepared for this. I didn't think the last 9 1/2 years would fly by like this!!)  I got Mere this American Girl book.

Several co workers had given their daughter's this book when they were  around her age. Mere skimmed through the book on Christmas day on our way to Augusta. We are going to go back through the book together. For me I really like the book to help ease us into the "talk". It is simply written and easy for a younger girl to understand. It talks about puberty in a positive way. It has fun illustrations that would appeal to our daughter and does talks about all bodies being different. So if you are looking for a book to ease your daughter into this season of her life I highly recommend it.
