Had some good points and lessons I found it best reading two to three chapters only at a time 205 I was happy to see a re release of Beautiful Girlhood as it was a book that I remembered reading when I was younger. Nonfiction Beautiful girlhood studies The advice overall is sound though some of it I do not fully agree with as an adult but majority of it is simply helpful advice about how to protect a young girl s innocence early in life and grow into a mature adult. Book Beautiful girlhood I think as long as you read the book beforehand and decide what parts are right for your daughters and your family it can still be a valuable read overall Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the digital ARC of this book All views and opinions expressed in this review are my own 205 This an old fashioned book about how to be a lady Written for young teens I found it a helpful reminder although I knew most of the stuff It talked on how to act and relate to your parents and others good character traits understanding how your changing etc 205 Read this aloud with my 13 year old We read the original version maybe the revised version is better Some timeless wisdom but much is law with no gospel One chapter mentions Christ and some chapters mention a vague God and he is depicted only as judge It s a useful book for young ladies and interesting to note how much culture has changed since it was written but we followed most chapters up with discussion on law and grace 205 ALL THE GIRLS OUT THERE READ THIS such a great book I think every young women needs to read this it touches so many day to day tasks and things that women girls deal with 205 One of the best books I have ever read Every single teenage girl should read it preferably at least once a year While it is mostly directed at girls in their early teens there is much in it for older teens as well Although written in 1922 it is not outdated the author wrote it in such a way that changing times would not change the majority of what it says Its principles are still applicable today perhaps now than ever Even if something is occasionally mentioned that does not still have relevance today it is always easy to find a modern equivalent where the basic principle still holds good I strongly recommend this to every girl now in the years of beautiful girlhood 205 I wish I d read this when I was around 11 Even though I m past the target age I did still get a lot of worth out of it and now I m prepared to use it with my own future daughters 205 Oh my I read a soon to be re released version of this 100 year old book and I cringe to think that people are still trying to teach girls to live this way This book may have been helpful for some girls in the early 1900 s no not really but what 21st century young woman is going to relate to a woman preaching to her about the sins of wanting to ride in fancy carriages or wearing an extravagant hairstyle The book gives all the standard old fashioned advice about how important it is to be obedient helpful kind meek etc Girls should not be friends with boys If you dress provocatively like showing arms you not only are asking for any awful things that are said about you but you are harming the good boys who might have sinful thoughts put in their heads by overhearing nasty things boys might say about you Don t act like a boy Nobody wants a boyish girl or a girlish boy Don t hold hands or play games with boys etc She should always remember that Father has the right to direct her life to say what she shall and shall not do And so on It s all straight out of a Duggar family handbook shame guilt and victim blaming and all. Beautiful girlhood dolls clothes The book goes on and on with talk about how a girl should act and what she should do but it also gives almost no actual instruction The author says that a girl should know how to cook clean dust keep herself healthy make money if something happens and she needs to etc but doesn t tell how to do these things There are just lots of stories about young girls the author knew and how they mostly failed or shined At best it makes for interesting history but in a really depressing way. Book Beautiful girlhood At one point the author even says that nowadays girls are allowed to go out in public as if that s a bad thing Oh and reading mystery or crime books is sinful too almost as much as befriending the kinds of people in those books. Beautiful Girlhood kindle books As I read it I am not only carried away by the beautiful prose and lyrical instruction but I am also thankful for the wisdom that age carries and passes down to its young. EBook Beautiful girlhood book I would not chill the warmth and ardor of happy girlhood What if I do know that the clouds and storms of life are just ahead and that its cares will bend her back and break her heart Would they be any less if she knew Soon enough the sorrows and pain will come Laugh and play now for this is your day Dream your bright and happy dreams and aspire to your lofty heights I should be a pessimist indeed if I saw evil in the radiant dreams and fair hopes that now brighten your skies and make your path light 13 14 Certain parts i disagreed with yet I had to check myself to see if what I disagreed with was due to the cultural disparities or because it checked at my conscience There were quite a few times of conscience pricks yet there were also times where I felt the claims she made were too large and unsupported ie second to being a wife and mother there is no nobler profession for any girl to choose than that of a teacher Overall I am charmed by the optimism and love in this book there were many times i wrinkled my nose at it but I definitely have to check myself and see if what I protest at is due to the counter cultural claims or because it is wrong 205 I read this a long long time ago with my mom and sister for school and let s just say a lot of what I read was lost on me I was 7 8 9 somewhere in there It kind of disgusted me at the time when I was really rather a tomboy xD But what I do remember now was some great advice and I m glad I read it even if it was torture to my younger self P 205
