Daughters of the Moon, Sisters of the Sun: Young Women
and Mentors on the Transition to Womanhood

Photos
and stories from more than forty teenage girls provide
validation, support and vision for girls facing the transition
to womanhood.
Discover why twenty young women who came together to share
stories for ten weeks ended up meeting for two years, and
listen to the wisdom of these girls who had the courage to
speak their truth, and the elders who heard them. Women today
in many cultures have more freedom than ever to be anything
they want to be. Yet these changing roles present young women
with unique challenges in making their transition into womanhood,
since many of the social support systems we once took for
granted have disintegrated.
K. Wind Hughes and Linda Wolf have devoted much of their life
work to helping young women find their way and share that
knowledge with you. They co-founded the Daughters
Sisters Project, a nonprofit organization whose mission
is to educate, inspire and empower young women, foster partnerships
between the genders, generations and cultures and support
youth in positive self-expression and social action for a
just and sustainable world.
