No wonder it's called "middle school"! If you're in grades 6-9, you're not a child anymore ... but you're not grown-up, either. You have more freedom ... but not enough. Your life is more exciting ... but it's more stressful, too.
Suddenly you have a ton of questions -- about your body and your feelings, family and friends, school and life in general. You're facing a lot of new decisions, and it's hard to know where to go for advice. Your friends? They may be confused, too. Your parents? They might not understand everything you're going through.
This book can help. It's there when you need it, day or night. And it answers all kinds of questions. Like:
What's happening to my body? -- What if I have to get braces or glasses? -- What can I do to feel better about myself? -- Why am I having mood swings? -- What's stress, and how can I cope with it? -- How can I handle my fears and strong feelings like anger, sadness, and grief? -- Why is it so hard to talk to my parents lately? -- How can I get more privacy? -- How can I get along better with my friends? -- What about cliques and peer pressure? -- How can I be more popular? -- How can I study smarter? -- How can I handle school projects and reports, which are a lot bigger deal than they used to be? -- How can I tell the difference between good risks and bad risks? -- How can I manage my money and my time? -- How can I prepare for the future?
Full of straight talk, helpful tips, good advice, and quotes from real kids, TOO OLD FOR THIS, TOO YOUNG FOR THAT! is just what you need to make the most of middle school -- and beyond.
