Customer Reviews

Great book

"A Girl's Guide to Life" is a great book for ages 9-13. It covers topics such as making gifts, fun games to play, snacks and cooking, basic social skills, art projects and crafts, and much more. The topics are all divided into chapters, including money, hygeine and grooming, safety, fixing and making things, things to do inside and outside, and more. I wouldn't recommend this book to girls older than 13 because they would probably know most of the things in here, but even they can learn something in it. The book is also a great boredom buster for hot summer days, or rainy days when there's nothing to do. Overall, this is an excellent book.

Pretty Good

This book is pretty good, it tells you how to make some money, fix things, make food, and deal with life in general. But if you're over the age of 12, I wouldn't recommend it. Otherwise, it's very enjoyable and clever!

Wow!!!!!!!!!

Read it! It teaches you how to make money, drinks, friends and alot more. Even if you dont think you need help on growing up, Read it and you will be the best possible! girl ever!!

This book rocks!!

This book is really cool because it tells you so much about being a girl. It teaches you how to cook, do a manicure, earn money and much more. I definitely reccomend this book.

Much too good for kids; parents won't be able to put it down

I love this book! A boredom buster without peer, the GIRLS GUIDE has more cool things to do, look for, play and make than any book of its kind I've seen since I was a kid. It manages to be witty and informative, even educational, while never talking down to its readers. My kids love this book - BOTH the boy and the girl! A perfect gift book for any age from 6 to 14.
