perfect for older kids.
I love this book but it is very rude in places.If you are ever unsure about a book or a film for your kids then you could always read or watch it first and see if you think it is appropriate for them.

Perfect for tweens
There really wasn't anything bad except Becky downs a bottle of Vodka right from the bottle, shes INSANE about shopping and sells her friends dress for her friends wedding so she can be on TV, and if your kids don't know about debt and stuff they will not understand this at all. I'm 9 and I understood it so I think your kid should be atleast a tween to understand it.

 
Look forward to seeing the movie
I haven't seen the movie yet, but I think the book will be a bit different from the movie. The movie looks like it makes the girl extremely stupid as shown on the previews that she ends up googling the word 'finance'. But, in the book, she is pretty smart about finance. It's just she has a hard time practicing it. There is some language in the book, and of course drinking and only a little sex at the end. I definately don't encourage pre-teens to read it. I look forward to seeing the movie!

Perfect for anyone from 10 to anyone
Its a good book and any people from the age of 10 to anything can read it. It sends a good message out to children and adults about how to spend their money. Yes, it might have some drinking and kissing but it has a good statement. As long as they don't start it's the perfect book and it's fine for children (from the age of 10) and adults. Give them a chance to see the movie as well as it gives them even more of an idea of what can go wrong in your life if it ends up like Becky's. Don't forget every story has a happy ending even if you don't see it.

Great book, funny!
This is a fantastic book! It teaches you a lot about money management in a hilarious tale that will entertain any mature reader. Language might be something some parents would worry about, but it is fine for 10+.

It's a good show no matter what.
It teaches a lesson that if you lie there are some consequences you have to face and that's important for kids (and adults) to know. But again there are a lot of things to look out for like, drinking, swearing, and stuff like that.

A must read for every girl who loves shopping and wants some romance in her life
This book is all about Becky Bloomwood who is totally addicted to shopping. She lands in all kinds of debts due to her excessive shopping habits and goes through life in a funny, comical fantastic way. She stands up to things which she thinks are wrong and has a sense of pride and dignity. This book is about how she handles things in her life continuously falling into 'shopahol'.
