Why Can't We Talk

This book is an insperation for teens and thier parents. It shows teens that the problems they are having are normal and they are not alone. It also helps parents to understand thier childs point of view and hopefully will open up the lines of communication. Mikki Trujillo did an excellent job and the book is amazing!

Mrs. Trujillo is awesome

Mrs. T is my teacher and she is a wonderful person. Her book includes something for everyone and you are sure to find something you can relate to in it. With so many stories and points of view it covers every aspect of what teens are feeling.Reading it makes you see that you are not alone and that there is always someone out there that feels the same way you do. Buy this book!

why this book is for you

I recently bought this book, thinking that I should be supportive since I knew the lady who wrote it. I started to read just so I could say I read it. But as I got into it I found that this book was extremely unique and was very easy for me to realate to, infact for anyone to realate to. This book deals with issues that most people aren't very comfortable talking about, and you can honestly tell that everything in this book came straight from the heart. Something I found very unique and cool about this book was that after each section the author would talk to you about it and share her experiences. This book is somehting very great to have.
