The Rules: How to Keep Your Crush Crushing on You and Other Tips... Book

"Rule #10: Don't eat like a bird on a date." "Rule #14: You don't have to bungee jump to impress a guy." "Rule #24: Don't ask a boy if he loves you." Looking for some real guidance in the strange new world of dating, boys, and relationships? If advice from your Great Aunt Petunia ("Boys are only after one thing, honey. Watch out!") or your big sister ("Oh puh-lease, you're so immature!") isn't quite cutting it, this book is for you. Thirty-one rules offer girls solid advice (not laws!) on difficult dating questions. For example, is it okay to cancel plans with a friend if that hottie in American History class asks you out? What if you see your best friend's boyfriend making out with another girl? How can you tell--or show--the guy you have a crush on that you want to kiss him? Each rule provides commonsense suggestions for handling different situations, and includes comments from teens who have dealt with the same issues. The emphasis is on building strong, healthy, honest relationships. A fun, lighthearted tone encourages teens to explore this territory without getting bogged down in unnecessary games or heavy commitment. (Ages 13 and older) --Emilie CoulterRead More
