Customer Reviews

Every Mom and Dad should read this book, it's a perfect guide, very inspirirational, thank you!

Love these books! Reading them made me feel as though she was with me guiding me to spend quality time with my daughter. It is so very rewarding finding a good book and reading it with my 12 almost 13 year old daughter. Even her friends when they sleep over ask me to read to them one of the many books we read together. These books have given me great memories and a life I wouldn't have had otherwise. Enjoy!

This is a great book!

Whether your teenager loves to read and or is a reluctant reader, there are suggestions for all types of books they may like. We are (mostly) all readers in the family, but I was more familiar with the popular children's books and not sure about what to suggest from the young adult section at the library. Well, with this book and all of its suggestions and book reviews, it just opens up a whole new world of books to look for (either to buy, or get from the library; AND most of them are available at the library.) The book also talks about the value of reading together as a family, and suggests books that are good for that, as well. Almost any type of interest, there are book suggestions to fit your interest. I found it very informative and not too conservative. I bought this book thinking that only my 14 year old who likes to read would be using it; however, I have found plenty of book suggestions in it that my 12 year old (reluctant reader) enjoys, as well. Is it necessary to buy a book that is full of book suggestions/book reviews? I wasn't sure at first, but its been well worth the purchase price; its told us about a whole world of books that we didn't know were out there. Great book. You'll be glad to have this in your home library.
