There's so much to do online that it's hard for girls to know where to start - and which sites and services are right for them. A Smart Girl's Guide to the Internet can help. Readers will hear from other girls about their time online. They'll take quizzes and read tips that will show the how to be smart - and safe - Internet users. And there's even space at the back of the book for recording favorite Web sites. The more girls know about the Internet, the more they'll get out of it - and the more fun they'll have along the way.

These topics are vital in today's world: releasing personal data online, meeting offline, tech talk, email do's and don'ts, instant messaging, blogs, bullies, social networks and so much more! It's the 411 for staying safe, connected and informed!

This review is from: A Smart Girl's Guide to the Internet (American Girl) (Paperback)
You're a parent and you want to keep your kids safe online...but you don't want to scare the daylights out of them. A Smart Girl's Guide is a great place to start, helping your daughter(s) understand more about how the Internet and technology work, why it's not smart to share personal information online, and how to get the most out of the Internet and technology. This book will help protect your kids without terrifying them about Internet predators (we parents worry about that enough) and gives girls smart, practical ways to handle themselves in situations ranging from how to cope with a cyber-bully to how to use the Internet for homework and research. Best of all, it reinforces the bond between child and parent, and gives parents a way to talk about these important issues in a way girls will respond and relate to.
