New Nonfiction Book

askask elizabeth: real answers to everything you secretly wanted to ask about love, friends, your body… and life in general by Elizabeth Berkley

Actress Elizabeth Berkley is the founder of Ask Elizabeth (Ask-Elizabeth.com), a not-for-profit organization that facilitates self-esteem workshops to empower girls ages 11 – 18.  This is her first book for teens.

If you’ve ever asked yourself why the ups and downs of friendships are so hard; if you’ve ever looked in the mirror and hated what you saw; if you’ve ever gone through a horrible breakup and wondered how you’ll make it through..guess what?  You’re not alone.  Over the past several years, more than 30,000 teens have participated in workshops conducted by actress Elizabeth Berkley (Saved by the Bell).  In an open, judgment-free atmosphere, girls come together to support, share, confess, and confide in one another.  Written in the spirit of a group diary, Ask Elizabeth addresses the emotional lives of teen girls based on the most frequently asked questions from these workshops.  Full of personal stories and advice offered up by countless teens, experts from a variety of fields, and Elizabeth Berkley herself, this ultimate life handbook for teenage girls can be relied on again and again for comfort, guidance, inspiration, and answers.
