Ups and Downs: How to Beat the Blues and Teen Depression (Plugged In)
Grade 5 Up-Ups & Downs is a remarkably complete resource written in a clear, down-to-earth style that is accessible to reluctant readers. There are examples of how to differentiate between a "bad day" and chronic depression, and how to get help if necessary. When Your Parents Split Up contains many stories of how teens dealt with their parents' divorces. There is also information about custody law, single parents, and stepfamilies. The quizzes, firsthand accounts, and cartoons in these practical series entries will appeal to teen readers. Both titles include helpful hot lines.Linda W.
