A New Book for Karen Casey Helps Tween and Teen Girls be Who They Want to Be
(PRWEB) May 27, 2007 -- For a vast majority of girls in this country, there comes an age at which self-esteem, self-assurance, equilibrium, and confidence fly out the window. Maybe it's hormones, maybe it's culture, or maybe it's just called growing up. Whatever the cause, it's real. Some girls turn, in their own fashion, to the same addictive solutions as their elders - compulsive behavior, whether that comes in the form of alcohol, drugs, food or something equally destructive.
Karen Casey, a veteran of the "first great revival" of the recovery movement, brings the art of living one day at a time to a profound level in Be Who You Want to Be (Conari Press, June 2007). "My intention in this book is similar to the intent in my other titles: I want to foster hope and willingness in young girls to believe they can make the changes needed so they feel like they belong and have purpose."
Chapter's include: Be a Good Friend, Be a Part of Your Family, Be Your Best Self, Be Kind, Be Brave, Be Willing to Lean, Be a Dreamer, and Be Inspired.
From the book's opening note to parents (and other adults who care about young girls), through to the final word, the spirit of taking steps for themselves, no matter who they are and no matter where they are in life, comes through in an accessible tone, providing girls the toolkits they need for handling life's ups and downs.
Karen Casey, the author of 17 books, is a sought-after speaker at recovery and spirituality conferences throughout the world. Her books have been translated into more than a dozen languages. She and her husband divide their time between Florida, Indiana, and Minnesota.
Be Who You Want to Be by Karen Casey; Published by Conari Press; Publication date: June, 2007; Price: $14.95; Paperback; ISBN-13: 978-1-57324-308-7; Category: Young Adult/Non Fiction; Available wherever books are sold or through the publisher at (800) 423-7087 or online at www.conari.com.
