Summary |
Making the transition to womanhood is a time of confusion, challenge, discovery, passion and courage. Young women often face this journey alone, risking their sense of self and purpose along the way. In Daughters of the Moon, Sisters of the Sun, women and girls will recognize themselves and each other through remarkably candid and compelling stories gathered from 21 teenage girls who participated in a weekly two-year long focus group, and the mentors with whom they talked. A unique source of truth, support and vision, book will be welcomed by both young and old - and women and men - alike |
