Lori D. Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 (edited) No daughters here, but typing the word "modesty" into the search box at the ChristianBook.com website pulled up quite a few listings, including: - Secret Keeper: The Delicate Power of Modesty, New Edition (Gresh) = modesty in what you wear as a gift for a future special guy - What Guys See that Girls Don't... or Do They? (Daugherty) = what women wear and how it affects men - Raising Maidens of Virtue: A Study of Feminine Loveliness for Mothers and Daughters (McDonald) = modesty as one of a number of topics on feminine purity and honoring God - Designed by God: Honest Talk About Beauty, Modesty, and Self-Image (Franklin) = standing against the culture through Christian beauty, modesty and being who God made young women to be Here are some websites as well: Pure Warrior = http://www.purewarrior.org/index.php?id=230 Teen Bible Study Discussion Guides: practical Christian living: modesty = http://www.ucg.org/teenstudy/modesty.htm Pure Freedom: Secret Keeper Girl website = http://www.purefreedom.org/ Positively Feminine: article "Modesty: A Teen Perspective" = http://www.positivelyfeminine.org/Beautiful/modesty.htm The Rebelution: Do Hard Things website: results of modesty survey by teens for teens = http://www.therebelution.com/modestysurvey/ As the mother of 2 teen boys, I thank you so much for your willingness to approach this delicate topic with your DD! BEST of luck, and my warmest regards, Lori D. Edited July 12, 2009 by Lori D. added info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiramisu Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Dressing with Dignity. It's from a Catholic perspective. I haven't read it in awhile so you might want to preview it for modesty/chastity reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mycalling Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 I am also interested in this, but from a secular approach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosie_0801 Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 I am also interested in this, but from a secular approach. We bought this little book when we had a daughter. Maybe that'd work for you? http://www.amazon.com/Three-Weavers-Rare-Collectors/dp/1584740213 Rosie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
specialmama Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 We like Beautiful Girlhood by Karen Andreola. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 I believe that Karen Andreola edited this book but you can find the original which is supposed to be better. We purchased it quite awhile ago and I cannot remember who sold it to us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTMCassandra Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 In addition to my favorites, Beautiful Girlhood and Raising Maidens of Virtue, I am fond of this little-known booklet that includes illustrations: A Woman Professing Godliness I met the author several years ago in Texas, and she is a lovely young lady.

sixtimemomma Posted July 13, 2009 Author Share Posted July 13, 2009 Thanks to everyone who contributed I have just made a huge book order at CBD! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravin Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 If you're looking at modesty from a secular POV, the book A Return To Modesty by Wendy Shalit would be a good one to read together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
