{"product_id":"9781628736113","title":"The Truth: Diary of a Gutsy Tween","description":"\u003cbr\u003eGrowing up is tough. Adults don’t always understand you (even though they were once kids), and children today face increasing pressure to be, look, or act a certain way. Written in the voice of a girl on the cusp of becoming a teenager, \u003ci\u003eThe Truth\u003c\/i\u003e provides young girls with an opportunity to see how a girl, who is in many ways like themselves, handles her toughest problems and most personal thoughts. Each new page brings forth a discussion to help girls handle everyday problems: How do you survive a bully? How do you handle a crush on a boy? What can you do about relentless teasing by your peers? What really matters as you grow older?\u003cp\u003eIn a positive and supportive diary-entry format, Dr. Barbara Becker Holstein encourages tween girls to carry the most precious parts of themselves into adulthood. A great book for mothers and daughters to read together, \u003ci\u003eThe Truth\u003c\/i\u003e is aimed to improve communication, understanding, and self-esteem for young girls as they enter the rocky road of teenager-dom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSky Pony Press, with our Good Books, Racehorse and Arcade imprints, is proud to publish a broad range of books for young readers—picture books for small children, chapter books, books for middle grade readers, and novels for young adults. Our list includes bestsellers for children who love to play Minecraft; stories told with LEGO bricks; books that teach lessons about tolerance, patience, and the environment, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sky Pony Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47048158216432,"sku":"9781628736113","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781628736113_p0.jpg?v=1763866533","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781628736113","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
