BLURB:
Nine Ways to Empower Tweens #LIFESKILLS is a self-help book for tweens. Fraternal twins Emma and Elliot teach tweens practical life strategies that they've learned from their parents and teachers. These life skills include how to have more confidence when presenting in class, the importance of work ethic, a simple writing technique to help deal with anger, and more. There are exercises at the end of each chapter that tweens can use to integrate what they've learned.
"Engagingly written and well-designed, NINE WAYS TO EMPOWER TWEENS #LIFESKILLS by Kathleen Boucher should be required reading for teenagers and even older readers interested in building personal strength, developing a positive mind-set and achieving goals throughout their lives."

EXCERPT
Chapter 1: How to Speak Confidently
Question to consider while reading the excerpt: What do you do if your presentation does not go well? Talk to your teacher and parents about backup solutions.
"That's of course, if the presentation goes well. What if it doesn't go as well as you hoped. What if you made mistakes? Let me tell you a story of how things went wrong while I was giving another presentation, last week. My teacher had arranged for me to use a projector so the class could see my work more easily on a big screen. The topic I talked about was the lack of exercise and its effect on tweens. The projector broke half way through the presentation. I completely lost my focus. I dropped my notes. I had forgotten to number each page. When I picked up the sheets of paper they were completely out of order. I felt like sinking into the floor! My teacher reassured me that sometimes things can go wrong during a presentation. It can happen to anyone. What did I learn from this? Machinery can break. Put page numbers on your work. Laugh instead of cry in the face of adversity?”
