      Gr 7 Up-This book covers a wide range of issues affecting young women today, from beauty, boys, friends, and Internet use to tougher problems such as drug use and STDs. Chapters cover each topic with scenarios from teens who dealt with the issue and include quizzes to check for understanding, and resources and tips to deal with the various situations. The most important concernsdepression, suicide, eating disorders, dating violence, sexual abuse, etc.are all lumped together in one chapter, while those that are important but less disturbing or life-altering are given a whole chapter. Each chapter concludes with "Seven Tips Every Girl Needs to Deal With]." A list of additional resources available for each of the topics appears at the end of the book instead of at the end of each chapter. The feel of the whole book is one of quick pop psychology rather than any in-depth solutions. Overall, the volume is a good read for those who want some information about girls' issues but, for significant help, other sources must be considered."Diana Pierce, Leander High School, TX"
