Review

"These are real stories about real teenagers that will both inspire you and touch your heart. Reading the book from both a parental and clinical viewpoint, I am very impressed with the depth of understanding, blunt truth and honest helpfulness the authors have accomplished. It hits home with the teens in my practice and I have begun to use it every day in therapy."
