My daughter has just turned 12 but at 11 she had breasts, pubic hair and started her period.
Yes it is completely normal and according to experts girls are reaching puberty much younger than they used to. There are many different theories as to why but the main theory being because of the improvement in health and nutrition in society today.
There are some really great books around on this subject but on the packets of pads and tampons you will find a phone number. If you ring this number the company will send you out free samples and a wonderful booklet about puberty and the changes that occur in the body. The booklet is simple, factual and can easily be read by an 11 year old.

Hey there,
Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition in which a person sweats excessively and unpredictably. People with hyperhidrosis may sweat even when the temperature is cool or when they are at rest. Sweating helps the body stay cool. In most cases, it is perfectly natural. People sweat more in warm temperatures, when they exercise, or in response to situations that make them nervous, angry, embarrassed, or afraid.
Excessive sweating occurs without such triggers. Persons with hyperhidrosis appear to have overactive sweat glands. The uncontrollable sweating can lead to significant discomfort, both physical and emotional. When excessive sweating affects the hands, feet, and armpits, it is called primary or focal hyperhidrosis. In most cases, no cause can be found. It seems to run in families.
If the sweating occurs as a result of another medical condition, it is called secondary hyperhidrosis. The sweating may be all over the body or it may be in one area.
In both cases you'll find on this site some good tips to solve your problem: http://hyperhidrosis.toptips.org

That is normal...
I started much younger....
Anyways, it's evolving that young women are starting puberty earlier than they did 20 years ago.

Puberty is beginning earlier and earlier these days.
Unless she is overweight or is having health problems because of it, there's no need to worry.
