Better with Books is a valuable resource for parents, teachers, librarians, therapists, and all caregivers who recognize the power of literature to improve young readers' lives. Each chapter explores a particular issue affecting preteens and teens today and includes a list of recommended related books-all published within the last decade.

Reading lists are organized around: Adoption and foster care; Body image; Immigration; Learning challenges; LGBTQIA+ youth; Mental health; Nature and environmentalism; Physical disability; Poverty and homelessness; Race and ethnicity; Religion and spirituality"--

Old wounds fester; new ones open. Grace starts having nightmares about her disabled twin sister, who died when they were kids. And Jackie discovers that Grace secretly catfishes people online a hobby Jackie thinks is unforgivable.
