Synopsis

Every teen girl comes to a point in her life where she begins to develop crushes. And that's the easy part. This quirky, colorful, informative, and fun guide on navigating the sometimes tricky situation of dealing with crushes is a must read for every teen girl. The engaging photos and sparkling humor make this volume stand out among similar guides, covering "what to do when it works out," "what do to when it doesn't," and everything in between. It also includes some first-person quotes from real teenage girls and sidebars that address various situations.

About this title

From School Library Journal:

Gr 6-9-These busy books are designed to look like magazines, with Cosmo Girl-like subtitles on the cover and lists, quizzes, peppy photos, and personal stories against a background of pastel patterns inside. They are not designed for classrooms, and, with most of the writing boiled down to bullets and text boxes, they don't contain much report-worthy information. That leaves them to being used as guidance resources, and in this context they should be taken with a grain of salt. For example, Being Dumped suggests talking to a teacher about a break-up, which is inappropriate. The books will best serve browsers who are looking for a slightly tongue-in-cheek treatment of teen angst with some helpful nuggets here and there. Adolescents needing serious assistance will have to look elsewhere.α(c) Copyright 2013. Library Journal. LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
