Review
I loved it the Guide to Sticky Situations! Actually, I should say my almost 7 year old loved it, or I guess she did because she begged me to read it every night after dinner. We would read the fairly solid and hip advice of the Fab Girls Guide. The whole family would chime in on what they would do and if they knew someone who had faced a similar situation. My daughter is highly suspicious of commercialism (wonder where she got that?) and upon initial inspection the book looked too American Girl for her taste. Surprisingly it was a big hit. If nothing else Fab Girls Guide to Sticky Situation was a great conversation started and provided a few evenings of fun family time. --propsandpans.com
There are a lot of mothers out there who wish this book were handy a generation ago. There's nothing more embarrassing to a tween than public humiliation. The most benign incident can be blown up in the mind of a tween to be a life ending event. We all have memories of those moments, don't we? Sticky Situations is about those embarrassing situations, as well as other blunders tweens may not have even thought about yet. In this guide book, Carmen and Dallas talk about preventing or managing situations such as having a bad hair day, getting your period unexpectedly, calling someone by the wrong name, forgetting to put on deodorant, and much more. Of course, my favorite passage is what to do when your father accidentally embarrasses you in front of your friends. There are more than 70 sticky situations presented in this guide book, all stress the importance of remaining calm when in a crisis, using good judgment, and above all being honest at all times. That's good advice for readers of any age. --about.com
