    This review was written for The Beauty Book: It's A God Thing.
    I, felt that this is a great book for our pre-teen, or tween if you prefer, girls to read. It talks a lot about how to keep yourselves healthy and strong and basically about hygiene. Of course it also talks about beauty and the variety of beauty that God has created. It uses scripture and encourages girls to realize that just because they don't look like the 5'10" straight figured models on the front of the magazines that it's okay. You are still beautiful. God created you to be you and not someone else. It also teaches young girls that its still important to take care of themselves physically by eating healthy and exercising daily and keeping themselves clean. I think it was a pretty well rounded book. It advises girls to talk to their mom's and to spend time talking to God.

    *I recieved this book from Thomas Nelson in exchange for an honest review.

    Lily has learned that we should be proud of the gifts God gave us whether it be red hair or large lips. He has made us in his image. He has given us these body to care for. Our bodies are temples of God.

    The Lily series for girls 7-11 years old is not only inspiring but pure fun. This Beauty Book is a great addition to the series. It is somewhat of a activity workbook. A companion journal would be good with this book. I raised four daughters and this would be a fun book to share with girlfriends asking each other the questions from the book. They can experiment with some of the activities like styling their hair and giving each other manicures and pedicures. This book will also help girls build there self-esteem and teach them proper hygiene.

    I recommend this book for young girls.

    The Lily Series, written by popular author Nancy Rue, is a series written for girls ages 7-11, and stars Lily Robbins and her friends as they grow and discover that the most important beauty is the true beauty God put inside each of them. The Beauty Book is a companion book to the fictional series that starts off with Here's Lily! Each chapter deals with a different aspect of beauty, from the first chapter that appropriately assures girls that God made each girl exactly the way He intends them to be, to chapters on hair, skin, make-up and clothes. Each chapter features a "GIRLZ Want to Know" section where Lily and her friends pose questions that the author answers with godly wisdom and which also provides practical advice. There are also short and interesting quizzes that help show girls areas they need to work on, as well as sections called "Talking to God About It" which guide girls in praying to God about every part of their life - and their body - teaching them that he cares about every part of them.

    The Beauty Book is a book that parents everywhere should plan on putting into the hands of their pre-teen daughters. My own daughter was fascinated with the book, interested in everything from the imaginative illustrations to the neat facts contained in the book about how to care for your body. But what my wife and I are most impressed with about the book is how clearly it highlights the fact that God knew exactly what he was doing when he created each girl to be unique and beautiful in their own way. How fantastic that a book on beauty includes references from the Bible and prayers to God! Who better to talk to than the very creator of the body that is undergoing such mysterious changes? Any girl who reads this book will walk away with some practical ideas about how to take care of their outward beauty while feeling assured that God truly loves them and has made them beautiful, inside and out. In a culture that seems obsessed with outward appearance, this book is a breath of fresh air and gets my parental seal of approval.

    Highly recommended, I award this book 5 out of 5 stars.

    Girls are starting to develop earlier and earlier. My ten-year-old niece has already started puberty. My girls aren't too far behind. And the thought almost terrifies me. How do I convince my child that she is beautiful, no matter what others say? How do I know what to say when she wants to try out the newest trends, the ones I don't want her to try out? Shaving, skin care, hair care, pimples, bra sizes, nail care.... there is so much!

    When I began reading through The Beauty Book, my first impression was "Now here's a book that can help". This book has it all. It covers the shaving, skin care, hair care, etc. It helps a girl realize that she is beautiful, just the way she is.

    Each chapter has questions and answers, 'Check yourself out' (where the girl studies her own body and answers questions about herself), 'How is this a God thing?' (scriptures that correlate to the chapter topic), 'Talking to God about it' (a helpful start to praying, to talking to God), and a Lily Pad where the girl can write a few thoughts.

    I look forward to sharing this book with my daughter as she grows and develops into the beauty that God created.

    This book was really cute. Its about making girls feel good about themselves and such.

    I like the quote on page 10 which says "God doesn't compare us. Jesus doesn't compare us. The world we live in compares us, but who are we supposed to follow? Jesus made it really plain. Love your neighbor as yourself, see scripture Mark 12:31. That means no putting your neighbor down-and no putting yourself down. Period"

    I also like how throughout the book there is little quizzes to take with no wrong answers that help you feel better about yourself. The author asks you to describe yourself and I said that I am a normal girl who enjoys treating herself.

    All in all I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it to anyone.
