8 year old development?

Question

I know this sweet little 8 year old girl who just loves to spend time with me. She is very open to me and asks a lot of questions. Lately she has been asking a lot of questions about development and has just started to show signs of breast development. Her mom is a bit unstable and she isn't comfortable talking with her as she does me. She also loves to read. Can anyone recommend a good book about development for a 8 year old girl. It has to be pretty simple because she is only eight, and I don't want her to freak out. Thanks in advance.

It worked in my household for my 10 year old twins.

Good luck!

I hate to be paranoid... but my first thought is that this is not your territory... A girls development should be discussed with her parents or a doctor.... If her mom is unstable, then you should still have a chat with her and make sure that she is ok with you assisting her daughter in this.. It's a touchy subject and if you are not "family" then you may want to step back a bit..
