This is the weekend of my book release! Words really can not express how these past 2 days have been. It's exhilarating, nerve-wracking, heart-warming and inspirational all in one. The reception that the book and the whole concept of Feel Good Girl has received has been absolutely incredible!
In the meantime, I may be on a mini-book tour but I've still got my ear out for interesting news and views on the culture that influences our girls so strongly. I caught wind of this very interesting conversation on the blog for Packaging Girlhood. (BTW, if you Mamas want to get a real-deal view of just how much pop culture, media and advertising impacts the way our girls think and act, you definitely want to check this book out. It's a real eye-opener.)
The conversation is carried further here at Shaping Youth (another great blog that takes a deeper look at marketing and media's influence on girls). Check 'em out. Chime in. This is what being informed Mamas is all about.
Now I'm off to the final book signing. Catch you all in the next couple days.

Hi Mommy B - congrats on your new book! I'd love to review a copy for my blog, Girl Media Maven. And thanks for the great work you do for all our girls - we need to support each other in this crucial endeavor!
