School Library Journal Review

Gr 7 Up‘Parker offers teens sound advice and practical steps for making their decisions. She discusses different personality types, how to listen to advice, and the fact that decisions have consequences. She provides examples of dilemmas adolescents might face, a description of how decisions were made, and the resulting outcomes. This book will be useful for young people who wish to learn how to take control of their lives. Tattooing and Body Piercing is a timely title on a current popular-culture phenomenon. However, while Reybold provides much accurate information about issues to consider and questions to ask of practitioners to preserve health, her disapproval of these practices is obvious throughout. As in Decision-Making, case studies present individual experiences. In every instance however, the person either had a bad experience, is unhappy with the result, or lives to regret it. The slant is so extreme as to seem unbelievable and it is unlikely that the scare tactics used will prevent participation in these fashions. Black-and-white photographs illustrate both books, giving them a textbook appearance. The pictures concerning tattooing and body piercing are particularly unattractive.‘Melissa Gross, Beverly Hills Public Library, CA (c) Copyright 2010.
