Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One-of-a-Kind Magazine is Written Mostly By Its Own Young Readers
What really makes DG a one-of-a-kind magazine is that over half of its content is written by the readers themselves. Each month the magazine travels to a new state and finds twelve girls that according to Catherine "...stand out as role models, girls with something interesting to say, girls who simply have that special spark...and we also try to get a diverse group in terms of size, ethnic background, and looks, so all girls will feel like they see girls just like themselves on our pages." Those ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good pre teen magazine
This magazine is definitely a keeper. It teaches kids to cope with their age problems in a great way, telling real life stories. Has all the fun activities and fashion and care tips as well. Both my 8 year old and the 11 year old daughters love it.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - not appropriate for 8-10 year olds
I don't think that the age range is correct for this magazine. What 8 year old is concerned about boyfriends and popularity issues? Furthermore, it is shocking that so many "girl" magazines focus on nothing but fashion, boys and looking sexy. Some of the girls photographed in this magazine are being made up to look like women already.

Why does our society have to keep pushing girls to grow up so fast. They have the rest of their life to worry about boys! The sheer innocence of ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Age subjects topics not interesting
Somewhat disappointed, this magazine is for 8 and up and my 7 1/2 yr old is not that interested in the topics covered.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - If you want your 8yr old to be concerned with her looks and shallow, this magazine is for you!
I am shocked at all the good reviews here. Don't get me wrong, this magazine is cute for girls ages 12 and older but EIGHT??? The problem with our society is that kids are being pushed into growing up WAY too quickly while they are still too imature. If your 8yr old is learning about how to talk to boys, what glitter to wear, how to maintain a BFF friendship - then what will they be reading at 13? My bet is Cosmo. Slow down everyone. 8yr old girls should be playing on a swingset, playing barbies, ... Read More
