The Beautiful List by Christine Virgin

The Beautiful List by Christine Virgin

The Beautiful List is a story for middle grade readers, intended to reassure young girls who are growing up in a social media obsessed culture that they can find beauty in everything-especially themselves.

"I highly recommend The Beautiful List for every young tween and mother who wants to have meaningful conversations that will deepen their relationshipIn today’s world with so many conflicting messages, we need girls to know that they are worthy and beautiful inside and out. This book is a great start to last a lifetime."- Lidia Soto-Harmon, Chief Executive Officer, Girl Scouts Nation’s Capital

"A delightful coming-of-age story that enters into the journey (and thought process) of twelve-year-old Serah Reynolds as she searches to define, categorize, and embrace what is truly beautiful. From her developing body to her maturing character, Serah grows deeper and stronger as she encounters friend issues, sibling dynamics, and several unexpected encounters that alter her, inside and out. Whether you are twelve or, in my case, 45, this story invites you to be on the lookout for beauty that's more than skin deep."- Katie M. Reid, author of Made Like Martha and A Very Bavarian Christmas, mother to 5 with a Master's Degree in Secondary Education 

"Once I started to love Serah – somewhere around page 1 – I couldn’t close the cover. This novel has everything: original concept, timely theme handled with authenticity, characters I wanted to either bring home or smack (which is a good thing) and a voice that convinced me that Christine Virgin actually is a 12-year-old MENSA candidate with a heart as big as Montana. Tween readers are in good hands with this author. I can only hope she’s creating another story in her beautiful mind."- Nancy Rue, author of The Lily Series, The Sophie Series and The Lucy Collection
