Clueless no more! Social skills clearly spelled out for kids

Our school library just acquired a copy of this book and I am thrilled to see it! The book is "dedicated to students who too often have felt the horrible pain of isolation or humiliation" that come from social mistakes. In very simple language, Dr. Levine points out the social situations that trip kids, lists questions and activities so the kids can figure out what's happening and how to deal with it, and even has surveys so kids can look at their priorities and then set about improving their social lives. The glossary at the end translates between Dr. Levine's keywords and a kid's equivalent words.
