Customer Reviews

that everyday positive reinforcement

Lila Jukes says it all, in a flowing, basic little book which is wholly positive and encouraging. It describes important attributes of healthy, emotionally functioning girls, provides beautiful, down-to-earth illustrations, which clearly illustrate the story being read,(perfect for 'picture-reading' age girls). I recommend it be read to girls from pregnancy onward! I'm a Girl! is enthusiastic, to the point, and uses specific words: 'independent', 'powerful', and 'valuable'--great for readers who wish to expose their girls to the capabilities of language, not protect them from them. It's the kind of simple, universally understandable book which makes perfect bed-time reading, and it will have an effect far beyond its size! Query as to how this book can possibly be out of print????

I am the illustrator and I miss this book, too!

It is a thrill to see these wonderful comments. The "girls" portrayed in this book are all young friends of mine....beautiful, smart, great individuals quickly growing into young women. I'm glad to have been able to portray them in a book. I, too, think a reprint would be great. Frequently, I run into people who've looked--unsuccessfully--for copies to give to loved ones. Thanks for your support. And, if you liked this book, please take a look at The Piano!

A must-have book for any 21st century girl!

What a simple, yet powerful book. It takes the reader into a world where they can make anything happen. Any girl will feel good about themselves after hearing this story. Any woman will also feel good about being a girl! We are beautiful.

A wonderful book

One of the best kids books we have read. Our daughter has loved it since she was 12 mos. We have also given it to kids in first and second grade who loved it every bit as much as our young daughter. If you had it we would buy a dozon, one for every young girl we know. How can this book be out of print? This a best seller waiting to happen.

WONDERFUL book on self-acceptance for young girls.

A must read. I have my own copy and wanted to order one for every one of my friends who have a daughter. I'm DEVASTATED that this has gone out of print!!!!!
