Daughters of the Moon, Sisters of the Sun by Kwind Hughes

This book of compelling photos and autobiographical stories from more than forty teenage girls who participated weekly in a two-year focus group provides validation, support and vision for girls facing the transition to womanhood. By sharing themselves intimately on topics ranging from bulimia to drugs, and from pregnancy through suicide, these young women explore the process of discovery, healing, and self-esteem; they are accompanied by interviews with accomplished women mentors -- including Michele Akers, Maya Angelou, Riane Eisler, and the Indigo Girls.
Linda Wolf and K Wind Hughes are co-founders and co-directors of the Daughters/Sisters Project based on Bainbridge Island in Washington State. The Project holds workshops, classes and ritual gatherings for girls and women and facilitates adolescent focus groups for both genders as well as intergenerational dialogs between teens and elders. Together, Wolf and Hughes are consultants, writers, speakers and workshop leaders on girls' development, gender partnership and women's psychology. Linda Wolf is a distinguished photographer, writer and public artist. Her photographs are collected by museums world-wide. K Wind Hughes is a licensed Individual, Marriage & Family Therapist in private practice, founder of Hidden Cove Institute and Chrysalis Counseling, and an ordained minister.
