Publisher's Note
Wise words in the form of affirmations, insights, and sympathetic advice from Aesop to Oprah Winfrey; from "Dear Abby" to Dr. Seuss, especially selected by a leading expert on the concerns of girls and presented in categories including self, friendship, family, school, work, and more, with her insightful commentary.

Industry Reviews
Gr 4-8-A collection of inspirational thoughts divided into topics such as friendship, love, and family. Each one-page narrative begins with an italicized quote and concludes with an italicized pithy thought. Voices heard in the opening quotes range from Aesop and Socrates to Oscar Wilde, E.B. White, Susan B. Anthony, Madonna, and Oprah Winfrey. There is no identification of these quotable notables, most of which are recognizable names, but some, such as Piet Hein, may by unknown to adolescent readers. The last eight pages, blank save for a short italicized quote at the bottom, are reserved for doodling or notes. This is not meant to be a cover-to-cover read, but a flip-and-search text (since there is no index) when looking for just the right words, inspiration, advice, or solace. Although the quotes and text speak to girls, some may find them cloying. However, the enticing cover, the page borders, and the brevity of the selections lend appeal. A supplemental purchase.-Marilyn Fairbanks, East Junior High School, Brockton, MA
