I ‘ve literally stumbled upon this great collection of books aimed at parents of tween (7-12 years old) or teen (13-17) girls.
The list is sorted into themes:
- gender stereotypes
- body image & self-esteem
- dad and daughters
- princesses
- sexualisation
- bullying
- growing up
I have personally read many of them and I would highly recommend them: many of them are serious books based on solid research. My personal favourites are Packaging Girlhood by Lamb & Brown and The Lolita Effect by Durham, they both includes a broad review of scientific sources supporting the reflections and arguments put forward.
