From the Back Cover

How many times have you heard grown-ups say, “Just be yourself”?

But how can you be yourself when that self always seems to be different—depending on where you are, who you’re with, or what you’re doing? Your parents see you as their little girl and your friends think you’re a cool chick … while you feel like a big geek who can’t do anything right. And that cute boy in math? Who knows what he’s thinking!

If you think it’s easy to say “just be yourself” but it’s not so easy to do it, then this book is so for you! It will help you figure out who you really are deep down inside. You’ll learn to be that person no matter who you’re with through surveys, helpful tips, and places to write down your thoughts. You’ll learn to be the young women God created you to be!

2.0 out of 5 stars CHEAP PAPER, December 25, 2007

By	BAM - See all my reviews

I bought this volume along with the other three in this series for Christmas gifts--4 for 3 promotion. I received them a couple of days prior to Christmas and didn't have time to shop for replacement gifts.

I have been a fan of Nancy Rue books for teen girls so thought these would make nice gifts for my neices. This is the only reason I purchased these specific titles.

The covers were inviting, but the paper inside the covers was CHEAP and uninviting. For a retail price of $7.99 each for 128 pages, I expected much higher quality paper. Shame on the publisher!

I did not read these volumes, so I can't comment on the content. I would NOT have purchased any of the books in this set had I seen them first at a bookstore. These books do not invite a reader in. The paper quality makes them look like very "cheap" gifts--think dollar store books.

I give this book two stars only because Nancy Rue is the author.
