"Previously published as: Preparing your daughter for womanhood: a guide for moms" -- verso

This is your chance-not for having "the talk"-but for beginning a conversation that will continue as your daughter grows into the beautiful young woman God created her to be. Talking about periods and other natural changes doesn't have to be awkward. Even if your own experience was less than ideal, there's no need to be nervous. Instead, you can make it a fun, memorable occasion that helps to strengthen the bond between you and your daughter. In each chapter, you'll find ideas to boost your confidence as you create a pathway into this next season for your young girl. This book includes ideas for how to broach the subject with your daughter, pitfalls to avoid, and encouraging stories from other moms
