I love the fact that the part about boys is only one page long. That just says it all.

As a kid, I loved exploring, climbing hills, looking for birds’ nests and caves. It just kills me to see kids huddling around computers and TV sets, and I can’t stand those magazines for girls that are nothing but ads for make-up, lurid stories, and articles about skin and how to get boys. Books like this give girls the idea that it is okay to have different priorities instead of slavishly copying other girls to look trendy and ‘get a boy.’ Yuck.

Very interesting! I’ll have to take a look at it when I see it in the stores. While I don’t have any little girls, I’m always curious to see what kinds of things are being promoted.

I’m so glad to hear of another person that likes these books. I was eyeing it (and the one for boys) up at the bookstore the other day and decided I’d wait to get them. I think I may pick them up for Christmas.
P.S. Thanks for the well wishes.
