Good sense! Don't leave home without it!

A Smart Girl's Guide to Sticky Situations is an absolutely wonderful book for preteens about some of the weird situations that people of any age can find themselves in. With very appealingly silly illustrations, the book covers the expected items like flunking a test, not getting picked for a team, looking goofy in photos, etc. However, there are some serious situations that are beautifully handled. For example, information about what to do if you are separated from your family in the city could save a child's life. Knowing how to handle false accusations could save a child's sanity! Little sidebars called "Disaster Blasters" provide information to prevent all manner of inconvenience, embarrassment and grief! While some reviewers have stated that this is merely a compilation of common sense, keep in mind that maturity comes with age and experience, and this book is aimed at a very young audience. I really do wish that I had this book, myself, many years ago, and I highly recommend it for any young lady in your family circle.
Great information for girls!

The book had excellent information for girls. From how to deal with bad hair days to how to get out of a rip current. My daughter loved it and told me she got a lot out of it. Highly recommend it.
Very helpful, 5 stars, no doubt!

A Smart Girl's Guide To Sticky Situations is the best book I have ever owned. It actually talks about the things that girl pre-teens and girl teenagers have to go through when they are becoming a "woman" over time. This book really helped me in all topics. It helped me with periods the most...which is about the most confusing thing once teenagers know about what it is, how it works, what to do, and most of all how to protect. This book doesn't help with just periods. It helps with things that are very embarrissing (spelling check?), tips when getting lost, how to avoid dangerous things, dealing with rumors, and so, so much more! I'm sure that everyone that bought this book, will have no questions at the end. This book has everything you need to know! -Melissa

What do you do if you get separated from your parents in a big city? What if your BFF tells EVERYONE in the whole school who you like? What if you forget your lines on the big opening night of a play? Yikes has the answers to these problems and much more. It gives helpful advice and ways to prevent bad things from happening, but it's also fun to read. I love this book and hope that you will too.
