Reviews

Our students love this series! Even though this series was written several years ago, students love them all and want more at our alternative school.

This book [Baby Help] really got to me as a teen and it stuck with me even through my adulthood so much so that I had to go out and buy it. I loved this book as a teen. Melissa's story was so real and powerful. She was a girl stuck in a terrible situation with no one to turn to and she had to be a strong person to get her and her daughter out of a tough situation. Very good book!!
