| Synopsis: |
Most books of lists feature facts, statistics, or trivia. In Life Lists for Teens, more than 200 self-help lists distill "big topics" like health and wellness, relationships, feelings, creativity, problem-solving, and self-esteem. Each list is like a mini-self-help book--a starting-point for learning, thinking, and making positive choices and decisions. Some are practical: 6 Ways to Remember What You Study, 3 Rules for Doing Internet Research. Some are meant to motivate or inspire: 10 Goal-Setting Steps, 18 Great Reasons to Serve Others. Some are serious: 8 Tips for Coping with Tragedy or Disaster, 10 Ways to Handle Hate Words and Slurs. And some are just for fun: The 8 Clown Commandments, 9 Tips for Changing Your Hair Color. Any teen who has ever made a list will enjoy this book--as an inviting, enlightening read, a place to go for quick advice, and a ready source of guidance and encouragement for all kinds of situations. |
