About this listen

Is your daughter ready for puberty? Let her discover everything she needs to know ahead of time--and in the privacy of her own room.

Girls today are hitting puberty about a year earlier than they did in the '70s…. The reality is, your daughter needs to know the ins and outs sooner than you might realize.

Adolescence is a tricky phase of life–raging hormones, body changes, friendship struggles, new feelings to navigate…and it’s happening to girls at a younger and younger age.

If you’re worried about whether a young girl in your life is ready for the changes coming her way (or if you’re nervous about having "the talk" with her), a good plan of action is to give her the tools she needs to understand it at her own pace.

That’s exactly what you’ll get with this girl-friendly guide, which is geared specifically towards girls at the very beginning of their journey to adulthood. Rest assured that your daughter…or your granddaughter…or your niece…will find everything she needs to know within this audiobook–from emotions, to periods, to her changing body… It’s all here, and she can listen to it at her own pace–and dip into it whenever she needs to. Help her prepare to blossom into the woman she’s going to be with confidence and a bright smile.

I am a father with a daughter that will be going through puberty in the next few years, and I didn't know all the questions that I would need to ask her or how to treat the situation but this book will be a huge help. Understanding what she will go through and the questions to ask her will be a life saver.

Really is the ultimate guide

Girlish is filled with valuable information and addresses more questions than I realized girls would have. There was no handbook like this when I was going through puberty. I liked the narrator too. This is a must-read puberty guidebook for girls and their parents!

I bought this book for my niece, who liked it very much. After asking her, she greatly explained the things which impacted her through listening to this book. It was a friendly guide for her to realize herself for her journey to her adulthood. It includes a girl's feelings, thoughts, and biological and body changes. This a good recommendation for Parents and Girls.

Facts of life are facts of life and I really appreciated the positivity of embracing a young girl's transition through puberty because it is rarely easy. When I was growing up general consensus I felt like this time was taboo, awkward, and embarrassing. I love authors like London Ford is changing that mindset to embracing and positivity and this is a beautiful thing for a young lady to go through. This book covers so much not only what to expect but how you might handle all the upcoming changes. I really enjoyed listening and will hang on to this for my granddaughter as well as recommend for any mom with girls approaching puberty or teen. A wonderful resource to prepare young women to embrace their essence of womanhood.

Great for young girls or parents
