As a dad of teenage daughters, I wanted to read the book before I gave it to them. The book covers a wide variety of topics that I know my teen girls need to be equipped and empowered to walk victoriously through. While not exhaustive on the topics, the perspective is Christ-centered, and presented in a way that will help them think properly and then act accordingly. Excited for them to read it and to hear the truths they have been taught at home reiterated from the perspective of another godly woman.
Ahhh!!!! I am so excited to give this as a graduation gift. I have my own copy and I slurged to give this to a friend. I absolutely love this cover, its so pretty. Ahhhhh!!!! Iām so excited!!!
I got the one with imperfections, its only slightly nicked on the cover. Nothing major and for $5. It was such a steal. Iām so excited to give this to my niece.
Wonderful wisdom principles for girls and their parents!
This book is exactly what is needed for this generation.
Easy to read and good insight. Plus, my girls loved the included recipes!
Cogent, timely, enlightening. Explains so much.
Great book! My daughter was excited to read it and so was I :) brings up important topics to discuss, that will make you both uncomfortable at times. But we want them as wise as serpents and as innocent as doves. I believe that's the goal of this book! They need to hear from us on these topics, first, not last- they will hear about them either way! So why not openly discuss them? Teen girls need us talking about the struggles and sins of youth.
This book came out just in time for my daughter to turn 13- going to lead a summer girls book club with her friends (13-18). This book is even helping me love the standard! Thank you Rachel and Canon+
Filled with scripture and practical application of Godās word regarding wise use of our time.
My daughters and I really enjoyed this book. Would highly recommend to any teens girls and young adults.
My husband bought this for me as a gift. It is lovely. An exceptional daily reminder of Godās word.
Half of these chapters are some of the best, most direct, most sound teaching ever written for Christian teen girls. Reminiscent of Elisabeth Elliot's no nonsense approach. What a blessing to have someone other than just me, articulate it to my daughters (who said they liked the conversational letter format). The other half is primarily homemaking advice. Good. But not nearly as indispensable. That said, those first chapters make the book worth it.
I am not single myself but have shared this and am reading through it with a friend. It has been so helpful in helping me to understand the plight of singles AND has helped reshape my friend's thoughts and emotions as well! Thank you!
My girls (13 & 16) and I watched the webinar together and read the book, and I'm so glad! We talked about some important ideas we had never discussed before. Afterwards they were both asking me what we're going to read and talk about next. There are topics in this book I haven't heard other authors address. I especially love that Rachels places a high value on learning the domestic arts and creating a home while ALSO teaching our girls to be confident young women who aren't afraid to say no or take charge of an awkward situation. If you have teenage daughters, this is well worth your time!
My son (heās two) and I love, love this book. I canāt get enough of the pictures, the illustrations are gorgeous! I love the detail put into each page. I notice new things every time I read it. Itās a feast to look at. The story is really fun and engaging, and teaches a good lesson in an exciting way.
My son loves this book, and so do I! Both the writing and the illustrating are lovely. Itās fun and cheerful and a relevant story for little ones (and grown ups, too!).
I loved the book and as a grandmother of 8, I wish I had read it when I was raising my three sons. Although my husband and I did a lot of things right, I think the reasons you provide behind the recommendations are true and subtle. It would have been reaffirming in some situations and instructive in others.
