Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Gr 8 Up-Stillman, a teenaged sage, has written a well-researched guide that includes sections on creating personal space, setting one's body free through yoga and massage, relaxation and mediation, journaling as a way to discover one's soul, and dream interpretation. The wordy tome ends with a chapter on world religions that asks readers "Is There a Buddha in You?" Each chapter provides a wonderful list of resources. Unfortunately, despite the essentially good ideas and sound advice, the text is pretentious and stilted, and Stillman seems far too worldly and sure of herself for a 16-year-old. Mindy Morgenstern's The Real Rules for Girls (Girl Press, 2000) and Karen Bokram and Alexis Sinex's The Girls' Life Guide to Growing Up (Beyond Words, 2000) may not include as much soul-searching, but they are much better choices for anyone who wants some simple advice for living.-Elaine Baran Black, Gwinnett County Public Library, Lawrenceville, GA

5.0 out of 5 stars Made A Big Difference In My Life, August 17, 2001
This is a great book! Very different from all of those superficial magazines that don't give you any real advice on living your life. 'Soul Searching' is well written, well researched, well organized, has cute drawings, and gives great advice.

'Soul Searching' has great variety in its subjects. Sarah Stillman talks about karma, philosophy, religion, creating sacred spaces, feng shui, aromatherapy, yoga and massaging, spa treatments, relaxing and meditating, visualization, journal writing, dream interpretation, hobbies/passions, etc.

Any young girl can benefit from this refreshing book on how to find your soul.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring and wonderful, March 18, 2002
A Kid's Review
I was given this book for my birthday last year and find myself returning to it constantly, loaning it to my friends, cousins, and even my mother. Written by a teenager, it applies to the feelings of girls today, and covers topics like meditation, yoga, aromatherapy, visualization, religion, philosophy, and following your passions. Instead of the normal "top ten beauty tricks" and "best clothes of the season," soul searching teaches females to find their inner beauty, and pamper their body instead of covering it with make-up.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Find, February 15, 2001
By Carmen (Princeton, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
This book is a rarity - one by a teenager who offers creative ideas for making sense of the joys and trials of adolescence. Sarah Stillman offers constructive tools and information to help teens make the most of this wonderful but sometimes confusing time in their lives. It is disturbing but telling that some would think a sixteen year old couldn't write a book like this. Underestimating the depth of adolescent personal development is an occupational hazard for adults and the reason this book by a teenager is so necessary. As a mother of three daughters this is a great way I can help them in their very personal but exciting journey to find themselves and set a positive pattern for personal growth throughout their lives.
