Synopsis

Looks at common adjustment problems

Reviews

Gr 5 Up--Two books that have up-to-date information covering the emotional, cognitive, and physical aspects of PMS and living with relatives. Moe's language is clear and approachable, and the text proceeds from defining PMS and reproductive health to recognizing and treating the symptoms of this bonafide physical condition. A good deal of discussion focuses on the emotional impact of it. Grandparents is a well-formulated guide to understanding some of the reasons why a young person may need to live with relatives, potential lifestyle differences, coping mechanisms, abuse and neglect, and the legal process involved in guardianship and adoption. Simpson devotes a good deal of space to affirming the emotional strain and confusion that can arise during a difficult change. Again, the language is accessible and clear. Black-and-white and full-color photographs support both texts. Interviews with teens dealing with either topic make the narratives more immediate. Overall, both titles provide informative, comforting advice and common-sense answers.
