"The Girl in Her Teens" by Margaret Slattery is a guide aimed at understanding and supporting adolescent girls, written in the early 20th century. This work explores the challenges and developments girls face as they transition from childhood into their teenage years, focusing on aspects such as physical, mental, social, and spiritual growth. Central to the narrative is the character of Edith, who personifies the struggles of this period as she navigates new self-consciousness, desires, and social dynamics. The beginning of this publication introduces the character of Edith, a thirteen-year-old girl characterized by her previous carefree nature, now transformed by self-awareness as she enters her teens. The author highlights the transition that Edith is undergoing, marked by a newfound concern for her appearance and a deeper emotional life filled with dreams and longings. The narrative emphasizes the importance of supportive relationships with teachers and parents during this formative phase, proposing that with appropriate guidance, girls can channel their evolving identities positively into altruistic efforts and personal development. This introduction serves as a foundation for a broader examination of the various influences that affect girls in their teens, setting the stage for deeper discussions on their needs and growth in the chapters to follow.
