FREE Discussion Guide for Secrets Girls Keep

October 30, 2009

discussionguidecoverSecrets Girls Keep:  What Girls Hide (& Why) and How to Break the Stress of Silence by Carrie Silver-Stock (HCI) is a must read book for teens and their parents.  This book written for teens talks about all of the issues teen girls face today from body image, boy problems, family stuff, peer pressure, bullying, and  much more! 

Even though it was written for the teens, many parents and professionals who work with teens (teachers, librarians, school counselors, principals, and school social workers) will want this book!  At the end of each chapter it features a Think About It and Try It section that make it very easy to incorporate into discussions, book clubs, group work, or other student gatherings. 

“As media and commercial culture is putting increasing pressure on girls to conform to standards that can be very harmful to themselves and their relationships with others, Secrets Girls Keep gives teen-age girls down-to-earth, practical, heartfelt advice that will empower them to resist the pressure and take care of themselves and others in these hard to grow up times.  Parents will thank Carrie Silver-Stock for giving them this book to give to and discuss with their daughters.”  Diane Levin, Ph.D., Professor of Education, Wheelock College, Author of So Sexy So Soon

More of what people are saying about Secrets Girls Keep:

“After reviewing Secrets Girls Keep, I have recommended it to several people.  Anyone who has a girl in their life should read Secrets Girls Keep because it’s more than a book – it’s a workbook, filled with insight and thought-provoking questions.  Carrie’s book should be the bible for every school counselor.”

Line Brunet, CLC, MFDC, MSLC, Life & Family Empowerment Coach, www.BlogTalkRadio.com/FamilyFocusCoach

 

Secrets Girls Keep is compelling in its honesty, openness, and just plain good sense.  Written for teenage girls, who face pressures that are almost impossible to imagine, it models getting beneath the silence and shame that all too often accompany life problems (e.g., loss, sex, abuse, eating problems, mood disorder) and actively engages them in self-exploration and disclosure.  A vitally important book.” Stephen Hinshaw, Ph.D., Professor and Chair, Department of Psychology, UC Berkeley; author of The Triple Bind: Saving our Teenage Girls from Today’s Pressures

“At a time when we’re all looking for change, we can’t forget the coming generations of young women in our world.  Carrie’s book isn’t a “How-To” book, it goes much deeper, providing first hand examples of why it might be a difficult journey for young women in today’s world, but not an impossible one. The Seven Tips should be memorized by everyone who is a preteen girl or knows one.” Magi Henderson, Glen Carbon Centennial Library, Youth Services Director
