How is your tween age daughter coping with the unique pressures of Junior High? Dancing in the Middle will give your preteen girl a creative tool for coping with some of these pressures, especially the teasing that often goes on at school.
All it involves is a pencil!

This technique involves self talk that is based on time honored psychology for building self-esteem and worth. It is my joy to come alongside parents and teachers as we strive to help our girls to feel worthy and have a strong sense of themselves. This book will help your tween girls learn to tell themselves the truth, and to practice appropriate assertiveness.

Dancing in the Middle is written with love for tweeners, and special insight into their sometimes mortifying world. This fresh new novel has a cast of fun and memorable characters, along with an ending that is funny, satisfying, wonderful and mortifying all at the same time - remember how zany life can be in Junior High?

If you have ever been a seventh grade girl, or if you have ever known or loved one, Dancing in the Middle won't let you go...
