wanna see my snake?
OK, bit of a weird topic.
I'm looking for a sort of self help style book for a girl who recently turned 13. It's that time in her life, she's a bit confused/upset and for various reasons I can't be there for her. I've seen a number of books aimed to help new teenagers understand what is going on and started thinking maybe if I got her something like that it would help. The problem is they are generally written by adults, and I can't decide if they are too preachy/condescending. It also doesn't help that she's changed so much in the last few months I'm not sure I know what level it needs to be pitched at.
So, has anyone ever purchased such a book? If so was it any use? Was looking at this one, if you click the book you can read the first 30 or so pages:
