Erin King asked this question about The Help:
My 12 year old daughter would like to read this. I have not read it in a few years and can't remember if there is anything graphic that she will encounter. What do you think about a middle school student reading this?
Donna C I would also recommend this book for your daughter. However, having a 12 year old that just read it and came to me with questions about the naked man"…moreI would also recommend this book for your daughter. However, having a 12 year old that just read it and came to me with questions about the naked man"stroking himself" I would say that questions may arise. Fortunately, I am comfortable enough to answer her questions so this was not an issue with us but may be for some people.(less)
