The Earth, My Butt, and Other Big Round Things by Carolyn Mackler

3.0

I read this with my 13 year old, or after she did rather. Not a interesting book for me personally but it is a good read in that it brings up the issues of body issues, weight, piercing, date rape and communication with parents. A good sounding board for those tough conversations with the teens. I do wish it had described date rape a bit more and stressed that date rape is rape, not a lesser degree of rape as the book implied.
