<p>Middle school girls are astounding creatures. Part-child, part-adult, these remarkable being surge through life brimming with childhood enthusiasm and semi-adult points of view. They can articulate feelings and emotions that might have been impossible a few years ago. They can describe abstract concepts that would have felt utterly foreign to them just a while back. They can wrap their young, fertile minds around ideas and events, history or mathematical formulas and then offer unsullied and brand-spanking-new observations. This book is about two things: 1) what needs to be happening on a developmental level with girls of this age, and 2) what works with middle school girls to allow these developmental processed to happen in a healthy way. What you will find here is not simply theory. The "how-to" chapters are based on actual experience at Hanger Hall School and at other single gender schools in the U.S. these chapters offer specific details and suggestions on how parents and educators can provide the soil, water, and nutriment for a girl to grow into the utterly unique adult she is made to be; and it all happens in this precious window of time.</p>
