A good book for young adolescent girls.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This is a beautiful little book about a 15-year old mother, her dreams and problems now that she has a child. Nicely illustrated, the girl has to deal with gossip, the father who doesn't take responsibility, her parents and the things in her life that have become difficult or impossible because of her child. It would appropriate for girls 10 or over, especially those who are at risk of a pregnancy.
Doll Baby
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Eve Bunting realistically tells the tale of 15 year old Ellie and her unplanned pregnancy. This book is written at a 2nd-4th grade level and it would be a great resource for families dealing with teenage pregnancy, especially if there are younger children in the family. In my opinion, Bunting covers a delicate topic with tact, and emphasizes that having a baby is hard work, and requires a great deal of sacrfice.
