Sue Scheff: Thin Club - by Kim Tennant


Thin Club - What a great book for tweens and parents alike to read and discuss. I loved the book and finished it in a short time.
Mandy has the perfect life and is the perfect student; now she wants to have the perfect body and be beautiful, thin and graceful like the models and movie stars she sees in magazines and on television.

One day, when her friends tell her she looks fat in a new dress, she decides to diet just like everyone else. What Mandy doesn't know is her extreme dieting lands her into all sorts of trouble.

Thin Club by Kim Tennant


I listed this book earlier, and just finished it. I highly recommend it for any parent with pre-teen girls especially. It is all about body image and the peer pressure they (young girls) endure from other kids as well as the media.
It offers parents an awareness to what our girls are going through with all the pressure from TV, Models and the desire to be thin - too thin!
