Junior Library Guild

From the moment they wake up and continuing throughout the day, youngsters are flooded with a sea of decisions to make. Eat breakfast or linger over e-mail? Confront a bully or pretend that they don’t see? Deciding can be tough, but with a little guidance it’s much easier. Chapters cover “Making the Right Choice” as well as “Pitfalls to Poor Choices.” The final chapter, “Saying No,” offers advice about turning down drugs and alcohol and how to get out of uncomfortable or dangerous situations. “Healthy Tip” suggestions are scattered throughout and vocabulary words are defined on the pages and in a glossary. Back matter also contains a reading list, Web site address with more links, and an index.
