Revised classic provides a humorous take on cliques, exclusion, and real friends updated to include online clique-tivity.?Clique: It s a word that s spelled funny and sounds funny, and (like a vampire) can be a pain in the neck. True friends don t make you feel left out, but for many kids, navigating social groups is tricky (because it s cliquey), and they end up feeling excluded. This book uses humor, fun cartoons, and kid-friendly language to explain what cliques are, why being phony is baloney, why true friends don t exclude others online or in real life, what s more important than popularity and how to navigate it all. The updated edition addresses online socializing and social media.The Free Spirit Laugh & Learn Series Realistic topics, practical advice, silly jokes, fun illustrations, and a kid-centric point of view all add up to one of the most popular series young people turn to for help with school, families, siblings, and more. Kids ages 8 13 can tote these pocket-size guides anywhere and learn to slash stress, give cliques and rude people the boot, get organized, behave becomingly, and, in general, hugely boost their coping skills.
