My sisters and I (ages 15, 13 and 10) eagerly awaited the arrival of these books. As we received each one, we became more and more saddened. While they would contain a few sentences of the beauty of the Church's teachings, they would quickly switch to fluff topics. For example, we had hoped to hear more on how your inner beauty is much more important than your physical. With such beauty, why do you need to use so much makeup or any at all? The beauty book (and the modern and modest) gives many very detailed makeup tips, (lip liner, lip stick, lip gloss, TONS of eye makeup, mascara, blush, concealer, foundation, powder, etc, etc, etc.). I do not personally think that makeup is a bad thing and certainly is not sinful, but I was hoping that they wouldn't put such an importance on the need for it. The book seemed to promote the draw into vanity (and not how to combat it) which is so promoted by our current secular world. They do say some things like you don't need designer clothing, etc. but that was pretty much it. I suppose I see how they were trying to bridge the ever widening gap between our Christian world and the secular world, but I still think that they had a great opportunity here that they missed using.

The other books missed the mark for us too. In Friendship, Boys and Getting Along, they say that "going with" and "having a boyfriend," simply means that you like a boy. When they could have stressed more firmly about waiting to date, they simply say that going places alone or having boy/girl parties are for high school. While this is a common take on dating, what about the virtue building possibilities here of not stressing such an importance on feeling that one must date in high school or even earlier?

My 12-year-old sister is homeschooled and I take charge of her instruction once a week, adding a class on Social Skills, Manners and Etiquette. This series has a bit of everything that I envisioned teaching her. I find some of the layout/pictures cheesy or too, how shall I put this, pink, but I probably would have loved it at her age. She thinks it is the coolest school book ever. Don't forget to get the journal. She likes it so much she brought it on our cruise!

As a mother making those first steps into teaching my daughter about the changes coming as she approaches her teen years, I appreciate this book. It opens up topics for further discussion. I find the writing style and content to be just what is needed. Thanks to the authors for writing this book!
