J Girls' Guide

PREFACE
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

INTRODUCTION: I'm a Jewish girl and so I'll become a Jewish woman-is there any more to it than that?

1. BEING A FRIEND: I love my friends, but it's hard to be a really good friend.
2. BEING A DAUGHTER: I love my parents, but do I need to honor them, too?
3. EATING: I like to eat, but I think about food a lot.
4. RESTING: I like to be active, but I am really stressed!
5. FEELING GOOD ABOUT MY BODY: I feel healthy most of the time, but sometimes I don't take care of myself.
6. LIKING MYSELF: I want to fit in, but I want to be true to myself.
7. BECOMING A WOMAN: I am curious about sexuality, but I am scared about it, too. 8. THINKING BEFORE I SPEAK: I need to say what I feel and think, but I may be hurting people when I do.
9. GETTING INVOLVED: I want to make the world a better place, but there are just too many problems.
10. BECOMING MYSELF: I am Jewish, but is this how I want to identify myself?
