“Dr. Markey has created an evidence-based, fun, and engaging book for girls. Each chapter addresses a critical body image issue and contains beautiful illustrations and valuable information in a readable, fun format. Body image is on all girls’ minds and they need information on how to process it. Dr. Markey discusses this issue in a positive, health-oriented, down-to-earth way that is appealing to girls. Finally we have an excellent resource to share with girls about their bodies. Every girl should read this book!”

“It is so refreshing to read a book on positive aspects of body image rather than problems, that is written in a style that adolescent girls can relate to and provides practical tips on topics that are central to their lives. The stories, lay out, illustrations and balanced information provide a fabulous resource for girls as they negotiate the adolescent period. I particularly love the Q&A sections that focus girls on the main messages for each chapter in a very concrete way. ”

“This book uses scientific research to educate girls about the changes they will experience through puberty and to make recommendations about how they can care for their body. It treats girls as smart and capable and addresses issues girls face every day, for example, social media and dieting. Girls will gain useful tools for developing a positive view of their body and establishing healthy habits around eating and exercise. They will also learn strategies for staying positive about their own body despite social pressures about appearance. This book is a highly valuable resource that will help girls appreciate their bodies.”

“This book gives girls powerful, evidence-based tools that they can use to feel more positively about their bodies, take good care of themselves, and be agents for positive change in the world. These are important skills that they will carry with them throughout their entire lives.”

“Charlotte Markey offers a comprehensive, direct and supportive guide for girls to build positive relationships with their bodies. Her friendly, conversational style will engage tween girls and support them to resist the disruptions in embodiment that are so common in the adolescent years.”
