teen survival guide to dating and relating: real-world advice on guys, girls, growing up and getting

This book is full of useful information for teens, and presented in a manner that appeals to teens. The illustrations are helpful and specific to different situations common for teens. The advice is practical and logical with consequences of choices clearly explained but not preachy. The teen reader is treated with respect for his or her growing independence. I highly recommend this book for parents, grandparents, teachers, coaches, to give to their young family members, students, and friends.

Can You Relate?

This really is a book for anyone, and given to me by a friend, I was suprised with just how much I learnt.The book gives advice for all kinds of relationships, with real life examples from letters she has recieved and answered. Its not the cheesy "Dear Abby" (well "Dear Deidre" in Britain) that you read in the newspaper, nor does it tell you what you HAVE to do. Instead Annie helps you to listen to your inner voice and be respectful in each of your relationships, along with more common sense advice, that its perhaps easy to forget.It has helped to highlight key areas in my current and past relationships that were problamatic, and whilst giving me the determination to improve on these, also helped confirm what I was getting right. In both ways the book has helped me with relating better to my friends and family...So thanks Annie!Finally this is an invalueable source for you to find further help, either on the internet, by phone, or even writing to Terra herself. I hope the books a huge success, then perhaps we'll have more of Annie's insightful advice soon ?

Much needed, much appreciated advice for teens

I LOVED this book! With the ease that the author "related" to the letters that she recieved from teens all around the world, I wouldn't be surprised if she was one herself. Every teen and every parent with a teen should read this book. The information in here is invaluable.
