"School Girls is a fascinating book. Hopefully it will be read by the right people -- parents and educators who could change the experience of young girls in the future. "

—Los Angeles Times Book Review.

"This book is to young girls what Black Beauty is to horses, what Upton Sinclair's The Jungle was to the processing of meat. To read School Girls is to remember -- how reluctantly! -- what it means to be a girl in junior high. "

—— Carolyn

"This important book should be read by parents raising children of all ages and of both sexes. "

—New York Times Book Review.
