In Before Your Tween Daughter Becomes a Woman, bestselling author Robin Jones Gunn provides heart-level mentoring to help you and your young daughter grow closer rather than drift apart as she approaches adolescence. This is your chance-not for having "the talk," but for beginning a conversation that will continue as your tween grows into the beautiful young woman God created her to be. Girls are reaching puberty sooner than ever, sometimes as young as eight or nine. But talking about physical and emotional changes doesn't have to be awkward. Even if your own experience was less than ideal, there's no need to be nervous. You can make this a memorable time that strengthens the bond between your daughter and you. With encouraging stories from other mothers and daughters tucked into each chapter, Robin's book offers ideas to boost your confidence and help you better connect with your tween. This special Focus on the Family edition includes a foreword by Focus president Jim Daly, an afterword by parenting expert Danny Huerta, and a special note from Robin's daughter.
