I have become a believer that every believing mother should read "She's Twelve Going On Twenty" by Kim Camp. I was so impressed with this book. I believe that this book would be helpful not just for parents of tween daughters, but also those in their teen years.
This book is split into three sections: spirit, body and soul. Each and every chapter in this book addresses so many concerns and situations that we as mothers deal with on a daily basis. At the end of each chapter, there is a section of questions and items to discuss with your daughter called "Working It out Together" segments. I read the book through the first time without doing this part. I will be going back to do so though, because I think it will be a wonderful way to discuss many issues with my daughter that will help her as she matures.
It is my constant and continued prayer that my daughter will lead a pure and beautiful life dedicated to Christ. I am always looking for tools to help me instill godly principles in my daughter's life. This is one book that I will be referring back to many times for wisdom and advice.
I received this book from Booksneeze in exchange for this review. I was in no way required to give a positive review, nor was I paid for this review.

The Christian Mama's Guide To The Grade School Years
Wow! Wow! Wow!
Erin Machpherson has an outstanding writing style and a wonderful insight into parenting. I have read oodles and oodles of Parenting books; The Christian Mama's Guide To The Grade School Years is now at the top of my favorite's list.
When I first received this book, I'm not gonna lie. I was kind of aggravated at myself for requesting this book. Come on, my baby only has one more year in Elementary School. My kids are older than Erin's. What does she have to teach me? I am the mother of an ADHD son... I could be the one teaching her! I was hugely wrong! I was beyond wrong! Erin has such practical and Godly ideas and suggestions that blew me away. Once again, I left my pride get in the way. I am beyond happy that I read this book!
Erin writes with such humor that endeared her to my heart right away. She refers many times to "The Fifteen Factors". I won't spoil what they are for you, but they are awesome!
