There's Beauty Inside... This Young Lady: Helping Teens Become Beautiful from the Inside Out is written by Ciara Ijames. If you have ever worried about not fitting in because you look or act differently to your peers, then this is the perfect inspirational guidebook for you. Do you ever feel your uniqueness causes you to feel lonely, sad and separated from the crowd? The topics covered include cyber bullying, how not to give in to peer pressure to act in a way that is not fitting to your values, and how to build your self-esteem so you can be motivated to build a good, strong future for yourself. The poems all have strong messages behind them and in a world where young women are forced to abandon their beliefs, this book will encourage you to remain true to yourself and appreciate your beauty from the inside out.
This excellent guidebook features every subject that troubles young women in today's society. The poems are thought-provoking and excellently written. I enjoyed each one for different reasons but one of my particular favourites is My Education, as it covers the importance of gaining success, power, knowledge and insight to ensure a good future for yourself. The Young Lady is also a fantastic piece of writing, covering the subject of setting your own goals and striving to be the best, and not giving in to peer pressure. The author has a clear understanding of the social issues of young adults and the life lessons covered in this guide are invaluable. This is the perfect gift for any adolescent girl or young adult. The reading guide questions at the end were just the icing on the cake to make this a superb book.
