4.0 out of 5 stars
Interesting Read,
By A Customer
This review is from: Tomboy (Paperback)
This is one of the few young adult novels that discusses a girl's first experience with menstruation. While the protagonist in this novel is only ten she experience this coming of age event and discusses her feelings of uncertainty and fear. Also broached in this novel is how two friends can suddenly grow apart and develop different interests, The main character is fearful of being labeled a "girly girl" by her former best friend and attempts to shed herself of all that is female, i.e. dolls, stuffed animals and her changing body. It's a good novel for mothers and daughter to read together in order to discuss how a female child's body will change as she approaches her adolescence.

Tomboy? Or just regular kid?,
By A Customer
This review is from: Tomboy (Library Binding)
I read this book and I think that it is a great book. I think it it is a book that not all, but many ten-year olds can relate to. It is about a girl, Toe Henderson, who does NOT want to grow up. But she's starting to. And, to make bad things worse, her best friend doesnt like her anymore because she's not enough of a tomboy and a lady that she likes very much gets a heart attack and died, AND, her own dog gets her eye poked out and has to get put to sleep. I know it sounds as though no one can relate to this, but some people can, just not in the same way.
