Going through the pre-teen years can be so challenging for young girls. This book sheds valuable advice and reassures them that what they face is normal — and that there’s no greater support than turning to God, who has a plan for each of us.

Beauty isn’t the light shining on you. It’s the light shining from you.
The pre-teen edition of Beautiful Lies — former model Jennifer Strickland helps young girls see themselves in God’s mirror and discover all the ways He made them special.
What does it mean to be beautiful? Do you need a popular Instagram page? The right clothes? A certain size?
Right now, pre-teen girls are flooded with confusing messages about their bodies, their worth, and who they’re supposed to be. The world’s mirror keeps changing — and it always leaves them feeling like they’re not enough.
But there is one mirror that never changes — the mirror of God.
Pretty From the Inside Out helps girls ages 8–12 see themselves in God’s mirror, learn what true beauty really is, and discover His purpose for creating them — in a warm, friendly voice that feels like talking with a big sister.
A great book for moms and daughters to study together — and a great resource for youth workers. Written in a friendly, conversational tone, it holds girls’ attention because they feel like they’re talking with a friend. I highly recommend it.
This book will help young girls:
- Know they are loved, precious daughters of the King.
- Understand that their bodies are holy, made in God’s image, and worth protecting.
- Trade the world’s ever-changing mirror for the mirror of God that never changes.
- Discover the unique design, talents, and purpose that make them beautiful.
- Build a lifelong understanding of their value in God’s eyes.
A book moms & daughters read together
Perfect for that tween stage when the world starts shouting all the wrong messages. My daughter felt seen and encouraged, and it opened up conversations we’d been needing to have.
Beautifully written and age-appropriate. It gently teaches girls that their worth comes from God, not from a mirror or a screen. I bought copies for my daughter and my nieces.
An ideal resource for our girls’ ministry. The crafts, activities, and discussion questions make it easy to lead — and the girls walk away knowing they are precious daughters of the King.
