Review
Discovery Girls compiled a lot of the letters they receive that are written to Ali, the magazines advice columnist, into a book called Getting Your Questions Answered. It is broken down into six chapters - friends, family, boys, school, body issues/growing up and self-esteem and tough stuff. The way the questions are answered is fabulous! I love that they break down questions and acknowledge everything that is going on in the situation, not just specifically what is being asked. The content is wholesome and an easy read for this age group. They deal with everything from boy crazy friends to peer pressure to coping with the death of a parent. Each answer is positive and offers good advice that I believe parents would agree with if girls asked them the same thing. Although their were plenty of letters regarding body image and self-esteem, I would like to see more on puberty and development, as this fuels many of the issues girls this age face. --propsandpans.com

Getting Your Question Answered Review
This book deserves five stars. Girls write in their everyday problems and Ali responds in a creative and believable way. The chapter on Tough Stuff is great. It deals with coping with tough family situations, problems with friends, and much more. It's all about the stuff we middle school girls deal with.
