| Publisher Description: It's not an easy world for those labeled as shy, quiet, anti-social, or introverted, especially those in their tween and early teen years. This series aims to help readers learn more about themselves, accept themselves for who they are, become more assertive and comfortable with themselves, and improve their social and communication skills. The language is careful to make sure readers aren't made to feel like something is wrong with them or as if they need to change who they are, but to build their confidence to become self-assured, confident individuals. |
