Help Your Child Do Great in Grades Six Through Eight Do you remember those awkward years between ages 11 and 14? Sandy Silverthorne does, and he wants to equip your child with practical advice on how to manage middle school. This thorough (and thoroughly humorous) guide contains helpful hints on how to get over middle school phobia, what to expect on the first day, why following the rules is important, and much more. There are also a variety of lists and questionnaires to help kids determine where they fit in, what classes they would be interested in taking, and what extracurricular activities they might like to try. All along the way, Sandy will share wisdom from God's Word, including the gospel message. With this book and God's help, your child can not only survive, but thrive, during the middle school years!
