girlhood

Girlhood is typically defined as the state or time of being a girl. But, what does this truly mean? When does one transition into womanhood and leave girlhood behind forever? When applied to real-life women and girls, this definition seems to be a common falsity. As women age, the girl within them is not abandoned forever.

Rather, she lives beneath the outward layers. Girlhood is present among the young, and lives in those who are stereotypically “grown”. We see girlhood by itself, in groups, within the little things, and the big events. In this book, we see the magic of girl culture and how it manifests within the lives of everyday girls. Enjoy the journey!
