Review

This book is a must-read for all teenagers but also for those who work with young people or are parents of teenagers. It will put your mind at rest and help you understand your own stressful situations and those of the people around you. A fantastic self-help book; Nicola Morgan is non-judgemental and knowledgeable without being preachy and it's reassuring to see her personal experiences included. Just the process of reading this book is cathartic but the guidance provided is wonderful * We Love This Book * Nicola Morgan's helpful guide about how to deal with these pressures that present themselves during high school, and includes handy tips and tricks to remaining stress-free. . . There's tons of topical stuff included that will benefit a lot of teenagers, particularly if they feel they can't talk to friends or family about their problems. More books like this should exist and be openly accessible to teenagers; in fact, a copy of The Teenage Guide to Stress should find a home in every high school library. Our teenage years are often the most difficult times to get through, so a guide like this really is invaluable and will be read for years to come. * Wondrous Reads * I cannot recommend this wonderful book highly enough. Despite the book being aimed at teenagers I have already recommended it to several parents struggling to support their children. This book would certainly be a valuable present for any teenager or parent. * Wellbeing Mentor * Written by a highly experienced author, clearly the book explains the biology behind stress and offers a huge range of practical strategies to cope with it and prevent negative symptoms. . . adults who are caring for stressed teens should read this book themselves, to gain an insight into the issues. Reassuring and comprehensive, this is an excellent practical guide * Parents in Touch * Essential reading for teenagers and the adults who care about them -- Fiona Noble * Bookseller Children's Guide * For level headed commonsense advice you could do no better than to turn to Nicola Morgan . . . an extremely useful book. * Books for Keeps * This book is positive and reassuring and gives teenagers, and the adults who support them, practical strategies to manage stress. A useful read for teenagers, parents and those working with teenagers. * The Psychologist * Written in a frank but non-sensational style, this book will be useful both for teenagers and for the adults who care or instruct them * The School Librarian *
