The emotional challenges of this stage are also addressed, including information on sexual abuse, bullying, maturation reluctance, and conflict resolution.

I did quite a bit of research on finding an appropriate book for elementary school age girls to learn about their present or future body changes. This book seems to be the best. While it is not at the reading level of the population that I work with, the information is right on. I'm going to use this book to lay a foundation for several lesson plans for my school to use for our girls.
