Summary: I still love the book, but not changed
Comment: I recently bought this book because it was one of my favorites as a kid and now, as an education student, I'm reading it for a class in children's literature. I still like it a lot, but I was disappointed to find that this edition had been changed! Nothing major, but just updated. For example, when she gets her period, it refers to her peeling the paper off and placing the sticky strip in her panties. There was no sticky strip in 1970! They had the kind with the belt and the hooks, which I remember because I had no idea what they were talking about and I had to ask my mom. Other references to hooking on a belt and stuff like that were all gone. That was part of what I enjoyed about the book, and part of what preserves it as a classic. That's almost as bad as giving the Four PTS's cell phones.

Summary: Every girl must read this
Comment: I first read the book when I was a bored fifth grader with too much time on my hands. I thought it would be alright to read this book because a friend of mine had read it and said it was pretty good. She then loaned it to me. I thought, Wow! someone who feels like me. I got lost in the pages of the book and really identified with Margaret and her struggles trying to find out who she is and what life is about at that age. I have read it several more times since the first read and now at 37 still find it as timeless and enjoyable as ever.

Summary: Wonderful!
Comment: I read this book back in the 5th grade...almost 20 years ago. I learned more about puberty from that book, because it was from the perspective of somebody around my age. Our school (Catholic school) 'banned' it from being read (in school), but that made us girls hunger even more to read it. The school looked at it as being taboo, when in fact it was a brilliantly written story, and one of those books I look back as being one of the most influential books I've ever read. I think girls should be encouraged to read it, and not prohibited...besides, they'll read it anyway.
