Abstract:
From May 2001 through January 2002, the Girl Scouts of the USA conducted extensive research on the needs and interests of girls today. From that research grew Studio 2B and a series of books designed for girls ages 11-13, 13-15, and 15-17. The reviewer, Michael Leeds, feels the premier issue of the Studio 2B Collection for girls 15-17, represents a terrific opportunity for girls this age to dialog, clarify, and become more fully involved in the world.
