Everything You Need to Know About Acne: A Helping Book for Teens (Need to Know Library) [Library Binding]

Jennifer Ceaser (Author)

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Gr 5 Up-An easy introduction to the causes and cures of acne that dispels common folklore and myths surrounding this skin condition. Technical, medical, and anatomical terms are competently and coherently explained. Information on current medical treatment is comprehensive, addressing the drawbacks and benefits of each option. Good health habits are neatly conveyed. While the book is concise and has enough information for reports, it is neither attractive nor inviting to browsing teens. There are few color photographs and none of the pictures are particularly informative. An average presentation, for purchase where needed.-Jane Halsall, McHenry Public Library District, IL

This review is from: Everything You Need to Know About Acne: A Helping Book for Teens (Need to Know Library) (Library Binding)

This book literally does tell you everything you need to know about this intensely dislikeable skin complaint. Not only does it give easy-to-understand medical facts but also deals with other matters such as how to cope with that moment when you have established eye contact with someone and then you become aware of their eye roving over the lunar landscape of your face, pitying yet faintly revolted.
