100% honest, empathetic, informative and reassuring, Caroline Young’s The Usborne Teen Survival Guide presents a thoroughly modern take on age-old concerns around teenage- hood and puberty, along with issues that have only emerged in more recent years.
Covering everything from families and friendships, relationships and school, physical health and mental well-being, social media and money, it goes beyond many comparable guides for teenagers, not least because it’s underpinned by invaluable advice on how to be “the best you can be”, how to find happiness, and how to practice self-care.
The tone is friendly, the tips are lucid and implementable, and the “What would you do?” quizzes serve as handy, incisive tools for helping teenagers handle complex issues, situations and concerns. Informed by a clinical psychologist and dietician, with a lightness of touch coming courtesy of the illustrations, The Usborne Teen Survival Guide seems set to help young people navigate potentially turbulent waters with greater confidence, with the ultimate benefit of enjoying a happier, more fulfilling life.
The teenage years can be a turbulent time, and managing the pressures of school, friendships, puberty and family life is tricky for many young people. This book takes an honest look at some of these issues, and offers plenty of tips and suggestions to help teenagers cope with anxiety and stress. Many aspects of self-care are explored, including eating well, sleeping enough, doing things you enjoy and socializing.
