Secrets Girls Keep Book Review

I just finished reviewing the book Secrets Girls Keep: What Girls Hide (& Why) and How to Break the Stress of Silence by Carrie Silver-Stock. Silver-Stock is the founder of Girls With Dreams, a site for empowering girls that is also written by girls. As the mother of two little girls, I am glad that an author has addressed the challenges preteen and teen girls face and offered a practical way to overcome those challenges. Not only is this book a must have for any girl in middle school or high school but also for parents, school counselors, and teachers. It can be used to engage honest dialogue between girls, their peers, and adults.

Silver-Stock offers girls 7 tips that can be used to help girls deal with any challenge in their lives from self image and boys to school and cyber bullying. Girls can read one chapter or read the entire book from cover to cover. This book urges girls to reflect on their own thoughts and feelings and how they view the world around them. Above anything else, it stresses that they are not alone in the struggles they face.

Secrets Girls Keep: What Girls Hide (& Why) and How to Break the Stress of Silence is available from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Borders.

Thank you to PR by the Book and The Product Review Place for the chance to review this book.
