Thanks
for your note to FEMINIST.COM.
Your note arrived just as I
am finishing a book I am co-writing
with Jennifer Baumgarnder. One
of the chapters of our book
deals with Girls--and thus we
have created a bibliography
for books about girls. Though
the bibliography is still not
complete, I wanted to send along
this draft as I think it might
be what you are looking for.
The
Girls Room: the cottage
industry of girls low self-esteem
produced lots of books and workbooks.
All are good-hearted.
