Reviews

Dean Burnett has written the book I needed in my teens...It's too late for me, but parents and youths, save yourselves * Holly Brockwell, Evening Standard * A wonderfully useful book, told with Dean Burnett's trademark wit and wisdom * Adam Kay, best-selling author of THIS IS GOING TO HURT * A transformative book that could save many troubled teen-parent relationships * Alom Shaha, author of Mr Shaha's Recipes for Wonder * A light touch on a serious subject. Great for helping teenagers learn how to maintain good mental health through the tricky years of adolescence, and understand just why their parents are so annoying! * Dr Beth Ross-Gilles, Child Clinical Psychologist * Every kid should have a copy of this book (parents can read it in secret late at night) * Tracy King, STEM Campaigner * Refreshingly frank, warm, honest and funny and really does relate to all the realities of the parent-teen relationship... Read this book if you're a teenager. If you know a teen, do them a favour and buy them a copy. * Make (Good) Trouble *
