Second Edition: The Body Image Book for Girls

An empowering, practical guide to help girls navigate the challenges of growing up and the many appearance pressures that can bring, this is a comforting, reassuring book that will benefit young and old alike. This is not another book written by an adult telling kids how to deal with things. It includes the voices and experiences of real young people, reducing the stigma and shame that can come with body image insecurities. It’s packed with easily digestible, evidence-based advice and information, making a vast and nuanced topic accessible for all. ‘ - Molly Forbes, Founder & Executive Director of The Body Happy Organisation

Adultish

“Dr. Markey does it again! It’s another book that can help guide folks through confusing years of life—this time, the adult “ish” ones. By sharing what science cumulatively says about real-life questions that often come up during those years, she provides a way for young people to honor their independence and find support for themselves and their well-being.” -Alli Spotts-de Lazzer, therapist and Author of MeaningFULL

The Body Image Book for Girls

“Dr. Markey clearly knows how to motivate girls to rebel against harmful ideals and be more conscious, critical media consumers. Within the pages of this book, girls will find all the information they need to live more healthfully and happily.” -Lexie and Lindsay Kite, PhDs and co-founders of Beauty Redefined

Body Positive

“Body Positive is the first book, written by experts in the field, that reviews the burgeoning research on positive body image….Everyone can benefit from information about practices laypeople can use to promote positive body image.”  -Dr. Sarah K. Murnen, Samuel B Cummings II Professor of Psychology, Kenyon College

Being You

“This book is as helpful as it is overdue! Kids of all genders have questions and concerns about body image but for some reason, boys have historically been left out of this conversation. Finally there is a resource for them - and the adults raising them - to normalize their concerns and answer their questions. Clear, well-researched, and easy to read.” -Cara Natterson, MD, author of The Care and Keeping of You
