There's not much author Nicola Morgan doesn't know about the teenage brain and this new title that focuses on well being for teens is informative, well researched and useful. It's written in a very accessible style and is easy to dip in and out of so it's easily digested. Lots of quizzes throughout promote self reflection and encourage good habits to keep the mind and body healthy. Lots of links for accessing follow on materials are provided and the page layout is fun without looking patronising or childish. A must have for every secondary school library.
The lively presentation, easy readability and plenty of visual material all add up to an approachable, accessible and motivating book which will be dipped into throughout early teen years, and continue to have a lasting and positive impact.
