A good resource
If you've ever seen how your teen interacts with their friends and thought they could use some assertiveness, I think this is a good book to run to. It will equip them with skills like how to speak their mind in friendships and dating, how to talk to everyone and how to set boundaries. It is a sort of crash course for those major life skills we are still learning. I was even able to get some take-homes for myself. That's how good this book is.

Solid advice for teens.
"Social Skills Teens Need to Survive High School" by M. A. Gallant is a must-read for any teenager entering the challenging high school world. As someone who has experienced the excitement and anxiety of four children entering high school (or secondary school), I can see how this book can give teenagers invaluable tools to navigate social interactions confidently and assertively.
One of the standout features of this book is its practical approach. The author offers helpful prompts and exercises that allow them to gain insight into their unique qualities and develop a deeper understanding of themselves. This book can foster self-awareness and, in doing so, be instrumental in building confidence and helping teens form meaningful connections and relationships, a safeguard against bullies and loneliness.
The book covers many topics: bridging communication gaps, establishing boundaries, and maintaining effective relationships with teachers and bosses. It teaches teens how to be assertive at work and handle difficult situations.
The Author provides invaluable guidance on dating and respectfully ending a relationship. There is an aspect of the book that deals with bullies and fake friends, which is a cause of anxiety for parents and teens alike. It also defines the difference between being a pushover, passive and assertive.
There is a workbook that provides a space for a personal bill of rights which sets guidelines for how the person would like to be treated. This is a very powerful exercise because it clarifies boundaries and establishes firmly in the person’s mind their own self-worth.
"Social Skills Teens Need to Survive High School" is a comprehensive guide addressing teenagers’ challenges. Whether they're struggling with communication, confidence, or anxiety, it provides practical advice and strategies to help them thrive through high school. I highly recommend it; it’s a personal development book for teenagers which will equip them to overcome life's toughest challenges. I also recommend it to parents; it taught me a lot. The narration is clear and easy to listen to, and the storyline holds your interest.

Thriving in high school and beyond!
High school can be one of the hardest and most confusing times in a child's life. At that age we are on mission of self discovery and trying to find out just who we are. This audiobook was amazing as it really covers everything that you need to know in order to not only survive high school, but to thrive.
The chapters on setting your own rules and talking to friends and teachers are a major confidence booster, particularly if you find these interactions difficult. What I Iove is also how the book deals with family, dating and work situations so effectively as well. These are vital parts of growing up so was very impressed to see them covered in so much detail.
The Author really instils a sense of confidence and optimism into the book and this makes it a must listen to! My niece has just started high school or secondary school as we call it in the UK so i'll be making sure she listens to this from start to finish. Great job!

Critical Insights for High Schoolers
This is a no-nonsense, and honest guide for teenagers to help them not only prepare for, but handle the curveballs that social life in high school can throw. The author does a great job of identifying the most common sources of anxiety for teenagers, and letting them know they are not alone in their feelings. The book then goes on to describe a number of strategies for coping with social stress, and building personal confidence/assertiveness, all with in-depth instruction for how to achieve each goal.
The narrator was easy to follow, and the content was organized in a way that made it easy to understand and digest. Would definitely recommend for anyone with a high schooler experiencing anxiety about social life.
