A Smart Girls Guide to Friendship Troubles Review
User Submitted A Smart Girls Guide to Friendship Troubles ReviewsOctober 15, 2008 I've Seen The Drama! What A Great Idea for a preteen book. I am a mother of three girls, and grandmother of four girls. I have seen the drama. Here is a self-help book for pre-teen girls. A Smart Girls Guide to Friendship Troubles gives advice to girls. There are examples of problems which a girl could be faced with, along with snippets of advice from other girls, and at the end, it tells which solution the girl chose, and how the problem worked out. There are quizzes on: A True Friend Test; Do You Speak Up? ; The Secret Test; Are You in A Toxic Friendship and How Much Are You Being Swayed by the Crowd? This book often suggests for the girl to talk to her parents, and makes suggestions on how to talk about a problem. My granddaughters are always making friends and finding out the friendship isn't a good match. This book will make friendship problems much easier for the girls to solve. I intend to purchase several copies as Christmas gifts, this year.

The Truth: I'm a Girl, I'm Smart and I Know Everything As a positive psychologist I'm always looking for books that are really helpful with tough subjects. This book is a real match for the tough subject of friendships and best girlfriends. This is a subject that just about every girl over 9 has suffered her way through. Most girls have good friends and then discover that there are problems to face: feelings of jealousy or being left out, or really not being someone's best friend. In fact, one reason I wrote my new book, The Truth: I'm a girl, I'm smart and I know everything, was to help girls understand and feel reassured about their complex feelings and issues in the area of friendship. The girl in the book has lots of problems with good friends and in her diary shares her truest feelings and figures out solutions. Girls need all the help they can get as they learn about friends, people ultimately they will treasure for the rest of their lives. So feel free, be a friend to your daughter or neice and get her this book! February 10, 2008 Ohhhh! The high drama of middle school power plays! Your seventh grader might be bestest pals with a classmate on Monday, absolutely hate her on Wednesday and be back to undying friendship in time for the week-end! In between, there are snarky girls who spread lies, exclude her from conversations, and leave nasty notes on her desk. And, that's just one week! In the high-action world of kid politics, your child needs an advantage, and American Girl has provided it with A Smart Girls Guide to Frendship Troubles. Kids, tweens and younger teens will adore this wonderful book! Highly recommended! January 18, 2008 Girl Books Friendships are important at any age...especially important during the changes that happen as a female goes from little girl to young lady. Contains information in how to make and keep friends and how to choose those qualities in friends that we would ALL want. October 21, 2007 This book rocks!!!!!!!!!!! This book is helpful and fun 2 read at the same time. It has real-life stories about girls going through major friendship troubles. The quizzes r also fun 2 take. I also luv the pictures. If u r having friendship troubles,this book will help u allot. June 6, 2007 Teen's Review I didn't like this book so much because American Girl has a tactful way of wording things. You'd think this is a good thing, but it's really not, becuase most of the book suggests being a good friend, but what if your friend is the one that's complicating things? If you have a specific relationship with a friend that's not working out, this book will help you out somewhat, but won't answer your specific concerns. May 16, 2007 Great Friendship Advice I bought this for my 8 year-old when she was having friendship issues with a girl she had been close to since kindergarten. She would come home crying every day because she was feeling left out of the group. We read this book together and found it helpful in dealing with her problem. It gave her so much good advice that I could see her confidence building and her fear quickly diminishing. She found the courage to talk to her friend and they are "hanging out" again. Thank you to American Girl for truly understanding a girl's heart. May 13, 2007 This book is amazing! My almost 8 year old daughter wanted to read books about becoming a "older girl" way too soon. The books I found, including the book from american girl "the care and keeping of you" was too advanced for her. Was I ever glad I found this book! We bought this book, the smart girls guide to manners, and beauty 101. These book DO NOT cover periods, bras boys etc but are written for the 7-10 year old girl. Perfect for my daughters age. THANK YOU AMERICAN GIRL!! You've included the girls in the "younger" set without giving them too much information for them to handle. This book deserves 10 stars!! March 23, 2007 Wow again! Another great American Girl book! I mean, it is pretty nice to be able to make up after a fight. This amazing and wonderfuly explicate book is definetly a book for me! I advise you to check it out! March 12, 2007 Perfect book for me!!! I think tihs book is great because it talks about how tweens should deal with bullies and unfriendly people. I read this book and realized that I could do something to stop being bullied. I think teens and preteens will make a change in their life. I loved this wonderful book and i hope you will too.
