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
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.

Story
At one of the most critical times in their development—an age when they're ready to spread their wings and look to the future—they have had to deal with enormous disruption and dislocation, and come to terms with living life from their bedrooms. The long stints of remote learning and the anxiety of at-home exams has compounded with the ever-present pressure of the ATAR and worries around friendships and relationships, who they want to be, gender identity, alcohol, vaping, and sex, body image and mental health. Self-harm and eating disorders have risen dramatically.

Maggie Dent, Australia's queen of common-sense parenting, has investigated the development period from birth to age eight. Drawing on nearly 5,000 survey results, the latest research and her own extensive experience as an educator, counsellor, facilitator, mum and grandmother, Maggie shows us how to help our girls build an emotional and psychological base for life. This is both a deeply practical guide to raising girls, as well as a celebration and intimate meditation on the state of being female, which women of all ages will relate to.

Publisher's Summary
Every day, adolescent girls face a complex and challenging social world influenced by popularity. As parents, we benefit from having the resources to help our daughters navigate times of difficulty and vulnerability because with the right support, these experiences can also deliver girls with their greatest learnings.
In this groundbreaking book, clinical psychologist Dr. Mary Kaspar deconstructs popularity and its links to our girls' well-being. She illustrates how the type of popularity that most girls crave is not the type that will improve their lives. With insight and care, Dr. Kaspar skillfully blends research and stories for a deeper understanding of social cruelty and advocates for change to benefit all girls.
The Popular Girls provides critical strategies and advice that will help girls increase their compassion and guide them toward nourishing friendships and meaningful popularity. A seven-step framework provides a clear pathway to help girls achieve the courage and openness necessary for real connection, flourishing, and likeability within the classroom and beyond.
Critic Reviews
"This is an outstanding book. It’s the most thorough I have ever read on the subject. It is also strong on answers—ways that you can help your daughter choose to be kind and develop her values and goals for how she will treat people throughout her life." (Steve Biddulph, author of Raising Boys, Raising Girls, and 10 Things Girls Need Most)
