No, not that New Moon. This is an ad-free magazine, published bi-monthly for tween girls. Setting itself apart from other girls' magazines, New Moon focuses on empowerment, advocacy, and community, and intentionally does not publish articles about diets, how to be popular, or Justin Bieber. Rather than conveying a morally superior tone, the magazine is glossy and fun to read. Girls are involved in writing and producing the magazine, and managing the New Moon website. With articles about reading, science, and community service, this is a cut above your standard teen magazine fare. I'm curious to know what real tweens think of this magazine; as a feminist and the mother of a girl, I think it's fabulous stuff.
