review 1: What girl doesn’t want to be the prettiest girl in school? Or have a high confidence level? Well here’s reality, we’re not and we don’t. However this book does have many ways for your confidence to grow and for you to be a beautiful person on the inside. Redefining Beautiful is a wonderful book that has tips and little personal stories along with bible stories that helps girls with how they picture themselves. It’s a book for any girl of any age to help boost her confidence and realize that you don’t have to be pleasing to the hottest guy in school when there’s a man that doesn’t care how you look or what you do but loves you unconditionally anyway…God This book was a book that I’ve passed along to my friends for them to read when they’ve had a hard t... moreime or things just aren’t going right and it’s always been helpful. I would recommend this terrific book to any girl young or old especially if they have self-esteem problems.
review 2: I grabbed this book hearing that it was good for high school girls to read and wanted to see if it could be something I could recommend to my girls. While the writing is completely targeted for the high school age, and sometimes cheesy because of that, I also was surprised to find that a lot of the book hit right at home for me. Lucado touches on how we redefine our beauty it how we look to God as a father figure, an area I have always struggled with. Lucado writes, "A lot of our style comes from their influence and our relationships with them. I’m not talking just about the way we look on the outside (although dads can affect our physical appearance), but dads help define elements that make up who we are, like how we look at ourselves and everyone around us. In other words, they affect our outlook. And our outlook gives us a certain perspective on every aspect of life and every person we meet: it either adds a dull, cloudy gray to our world, or it brightens the colors around us, making everything more beautiful. It’s kind of crazy, but his love can completely transform the way we look." I bit later she tells a story of a friend with a harsh father, "To withstand his anger, she learned to be tough. So in relationships, it’s tough for her to do that whole emotional thing. Her heart is defensive and calloused." This is me and I was surprised to be reading a book targeted for high school girls that got right down to the heart of things with an adult as well. And I love the hope that she helps you see, "You have a say in your life. You have a choice in the path you take. Choose well and someday - generations from now - your grandchildren and great-grandchildren will thank God for the example you set."Lucado touches on great subjects from relationships with boys, relationships with friends and how to live within your story, confidently. It is a book I marked up to reference when walking with my high school girls and to hand to them as they struggle with seeing their true beauty. less
