So What?- A thought provoking resource for young peopleby Susan Hardwick Using characters that many youngsters will have met if they used the Confirmation books Sure Thing! or Chosen, the author explores by use of stories, issues such as Bullying, Doing Drugs, Peer Group Pressure and many others. Each story is ‘followed by discussion starters, questions, prayer and Bible references, to expand upon the points raised.’ Aimed at 11-15 year olds, adults reading this could learn a lot about the problems facing young people and gain a greater understanding of them. Susan Hardwick has many years experience of working with youngsters, mine included, and writes in a style that they can relate to. Review by Mary Bartholomew (18/07/01) |
