The Girls' Spa Book is an invitation for young girls to step back from the anxieties they face — peer pressure, body image, school and family problems — and to simply unwind. Delightful, clearly presented spa activities are paired with gentle words of advice and encouragement to help girls foster self-esteem and self-respect. The book contains easy-to-follow beauty recipes including lotions, soaking salts, body scrubs, and many more treats they can use themselves or give as gifts. Sidebars feature the voices of real girls who talk openly about the everyday pressures they face.

From School Library Journal:

Grade 4-7 - Pressures and fears can have a crippling effect on young people, and this book presents "fun ways to relax, de-stress, feel great about yourself, and celebrate the person you are." The pages are nicely formatted and include full-color photographs and illustrations. The recipes for the various spa treatments (including "Bath Soaking Salts," "Luscious Lip Gloss," and "Fancy Foot Scrub") are clearly laid out with easy-to-follow, step-by-step directions. A helpful spread provides photos and descriptions of the ingredients used. Most can be found in grocery or drug stores, while a few may require a trip to the health-food store. The authors provide important allergy information as well as warnings when adult supervision is needed. Quotes from real girls are scattered throughout the text for inspiration and for mediation. A great guide for readers who enjoy creating personalized beauty products for themselves, friends, and family. - Elaine Baran Black, Gwinnett County Public Library, Lawrenceville, GA
