Handling Peer Pressure

A Chelsea House Title

Kate Stevenson Clark

Narrated by Julie Williams

Available from Audible


Book published by Chelsea House


Real-life peer pressure is not just about dares and bullies and can be much harder to spot. Peer pressure can cause people to avoid making friends outside their own clique, follow trends without thinking, try to achieve an impossible look, not take school seriously, and let anger turn into violence. Handling Peer Pressure examines the many different kinds of peer pressure, where it comes from, and how to beat it—and tells the stories of some remarkable people who did. Topics covered include: eating disorders; how TV shows and the media perpetuate stereotypes; teens battling pressure to drink and smoke.

Chelsea House titles offer informative, well written introductions to a wide variety of subjects.
