Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Camy Baker's Body Electric
Camy Baker · 1999
62/100
👎 Skip It
A warm, inner-beauty-first guide for preteens navigating puberty — the emotional framing is genuinely valuable as a counterweight to appearance-obsessed culture. But it was published in 1999 and is light on comprehensive health information, so it works best as a supplementary read rather than a standalone resource.
