The only book that talks about how girls deal with sex today

This terrific book is filled with girls voices. From girls that any woman or mom would identify with to the girls you knew at school but didn't talk to. No other book I've read so clearly conveys what girls are thinking about and dealing with. It gives new parents like myself something to work towards as far as communication goes and something to hope for in raising healthy, safe girls. I've never understood adolescence--even when I was in it. I'll be facing it soon enough with two daughters and I'm so glad and relieved to have this smart, sensitive book give me a leg up.
