Customer Reviews

It really does get teenagers talking

I wanted to clarify the purpose of this book. It is, as it says on the cover, "450 questions... to get teenagers talking." I was a junior high teacher at a Christian school, and I left this book and "Would you Rather" on the coffee table when we took the students camping. The books inspired a lot of energetic conversations. The books encouraged these pre-teens to think and talk about things that are important, funny or insightful, and I heard quiet students share stories they might not have shared otherwise. They took the books back with them to their bunks and kept flipping through them until lights out. Some of the questions are a little silly, but if students are allowed to flip through themselves, or if you pick out the ones that fit, I think this can be a good tool in a variety of settings.
