| Publisher Description: This book is for teens who can't stop procrastinating. There are hundreds of tips in this book to help them get rid of some "buts" that are common to procrastinators: I have too much to do, I don't feel well, I might do badly, I'm confused, I get distracted, I'd rather do something else instead, and other people keep pestering me. "Bust Your BUTS" helps teens be productive, use time better, and become more successful. Ben Franklin Silver Award Winner- IBPA |
