Groups turn on each other, a trusted childhood friend can reveal secrets by sending a text message or updating a Facebook status, and deciding where to sit in the cafeteria can be a daily struggle. As any tween will tell you, life for a middle school girl can be summed up in one word: drama. <\/p>\n<p>Haley Kilpatrick\u2019s own turbulent middle school experience inspired Girl Talk, a nonprofit organization in which high school mentors offer a \u201cjust been there\u201d perspective to tween girls, helping them build self-esteem and develop leadership skills. Here, Haley delivers the definitive guidebook, packed with anecdotes from real girls around the country, who offer their insight into why her friends\u2019 approval is suddenly vitally important, why she feels pressured to be perfect, why she\u2019s no longer telling her parents everything, and what three vital things adults can offer to the girls in their lives to downplay the drama.<\/p>\n<p>Filled with practical strategies from tweens and teen mentors to help adults understand what girls today are facing, The Drama Years is a must-read for anyone struggling to help girls navigate the often difficult transition into adolescence.    <\/p>\n<p> Publisher                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 Free Press; Original edition (April 3, 2012) <br \/> Language                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 English <br \/> Paperback                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 288 pages <br \/> ISBN-10                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 1451627912 <br \/> ISBN-13                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 978-1451627916 <br \/> Reading age                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 9 &#8211; 12 years, from customers <br \/> Item Weight                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 2.31 pounds <br \/> Dimensions                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 5.5 x 1 x 8.44 inches <\/p>\n<div id=\"product-summary\" data-hook=\"cr-insights-widget-summary\" class=\"a-section a-spacing-none\">\n<div class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-spacing-top-\">\n<h3 data-hook=\"cr-insights-heading-label\" class=\"a-size-base-plus a-color-base a-text-bold\">Customers say<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"a-spacing-small\"><span>Customers find the book provides useful information and practical advice for young girls and their families.
