Story
If your child is between the ages of nine and twelve, you are in the throes of the 'between' years. Not quite a child and not yet a teenager, tweens embody a very specific stage of development that once understood will revolutionise the way you parent, educate and support those in your care. In Tweens, award-winning parenting educator Michelle Mitchell explains that this is the most rapid period of development since toddlerhood. Right now, before the full pressures of high school hit, you have a window of opportunity that can change the trajectory of adolescence and beyond.

Story
On 9 October 2012, Prime Minister Julia Gillard stood up and proceeded to make all present in Parliament House that day pay attention—and left many of them squirming in their seats. The incisive 'misogyny speech', as her words came to be known, challenged not only Leader of the Opposition, Tony Abbott, on his words and actions but, over time, all of us. How had we come to condone the public and private behaviours of some very public men? In this book, Julia Gillard explores the history and culture of misogyny.

Story
At 10, we know how girls are pigeonholing themselves into what they think they should be. Whether they see themselves as academic or not, whether they are interested in boys, puberty is a reality, friendship fights are underway and the influence of social media is impacting. With heightened pressure from what they see in the media, in movies and on TV, our girls are leaving childhood behind well before they hit their teens. Not surprisingly, emotions can be heightened and relationships can be fraught.

Publisher's Summary
Imagine a world where children don't feel held back by their bodies. Where we judge each other by who we are being and what we are doing rather than what we look like. Where women don't feel like they have to get smaller, and men don't believe they have to get bigger, to feel loved and valued.
Body image, and the associated issues of weight, food and physical activity, are hot topics in our families. Research shows that 70 per cent of adolescents experience distress in relation to their body image, and up to 90 per cent of adult women would like to change something about their bodies. How did we get to this place of constant criticism about our own bodies, and how can we get out of it?
To coincide with the release of her groundbreaking new documentary Embrace Kids, leading body image activist and powerhouse change-maker Taryn Brumfitt has collaborated with leading body image expert Dr Zali Yager on one of the most important health issues of our times—helping our children and teens feel comfortable about, and confident in, their bodies.
With chapters on how to role-model body confidence, appreciate your own body and create a positive home environment, as well as combatting the body image challenges that emerge through peers and social media, Embrace Kids is full of evidence-based suggestions and supportive, practical advice. This book will teach you everything you need to know to build your kids' body image, to wholeheartedly embrace their uniqueness, and to steer them on a body positivity path that has the power to liberate them for life.

Must read parenting book that is practical, funny and informative.
This book is so refreshing and real, with relatable family experiences. It’s the first parenting book I have read that hasn’t left me feeling overwhelmed. It is full of great practical and easy to implement action items to create a safer body image environment for my kids. I appreciate that the authors have drawn from other experts in the field and that they refer to scientific research to back them up. A must read for all parents.
