My Review of Be Happy Be You
I’m so excited to be reviewing this book, Be Happy Be You, written by my blogging friends Becky and Penny. I’ve not been asked to review the book and I paid for it myself. The link above however is an (obvious) affiliate link to the book on Amazon. The book can be bought from other outlets.
My first impressions was how bright and exciting the cover was. No need for images just a bold red background and big white text…and a smiley of course.
As a Mum of a Teenager and a Tween I’m always grateful of any help they can get through these difficult years. I do my best, but sometimes it’s so hard for them to talk about their feelings. Being able to dip into an informative book is the next best thing to Mum.
From how to make friends, and how to deal with peer pressure, to getting along with siblings. This book will give a teenager advice and coping strategies that are easy to read and digest. It also explains the science behind the advice, not in a long winded text book way, but simple and precise with some fabulous diagrams to help understanding.
With it’s 40 chapters covering all the thing a teenager may worry about, it will certainly teach them how to choose to be happy. My girls are already getting stuck in and I’m sure it’s going to be a useful resource for them.
I like the sound of this one, Anne. Hard to strike the right tone for teens, but the sample you provided looks good … from my perspective anyway
It’s written by two amazing ladies that I know personally, and it’s a great book which will appeal to younger teens as it’s so easy to absorb and understand. My girls love it. As for my Little Man, I’ve a feeling when he gets to his teens I could alway use it to hit him over the head with!! (only joking!)
Oh I juts foudn this – Lovely you am so glad you liked it 🙂
It’s a fabulous book Becky xx
