From the co-author of the best-selling CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE TEENAGE SOUL books comes a constructive and inspirational book designed to help girls learn to love themselves by first loving their bodies. Kimberly Kirberger, co-author of the best-selling CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE TEENAGE SOUL books and a renowned expert on teen issues, addresses the topic of body image in LOVING YOUR BODY / LOVING YOURSELF. Many problems in girls' lives stem from a lack of self-esteem and self-love: eating disorders, depression, drug use, and more. Through powerful stories and poems from real teens, as well as personal tales and advice from the author, this book strives to help girls learn to accept, love, and appreciate their bodies--and, in turn, to love themselves.

Láska je nádherná vec. Keď sa nám otvorí srdce a vidíme toho druhého zaľúbenými očami, prežívame jednu z najkrajších životných skúseností. A keď aj on či ona pozerá na nás tým istým spôsobom, nachádzame raj na zemi. Každý vzťah je pre nás príležitosťou učiť sa a rásť. Láska je veľkou učiteľkou, možno tou najlepšou. No učenie je často bolestné. Zapamätajte si jedno: v láske nikdy neprehráme, ak jej vždy položíme otázku, čomu nás chce naučiť. Táto kniha je plná otázok a odpovedí, peknej poézie a príbehov, ktoré opisujú skúsenosti s láskou. Je ťažké definovať rozmanité pocity, ktoré sa vynárajú, keď je človek zaľúbený. Dúfame, že pri čítaní poézie v tejto knihe si pomyslíte "Áno, presne tak to cítim!" a bez akýchkoľvek pochybností si uvedomíte, že nie ste sami. Veď každý z nás nosí v sebe malé slnko a je našou úlohou, aby sme sa oň podelili. Kapitoly na témy: Musíme ľúbiť sami seba !, Zaľúbiť sa, Všetky tie nové pocity, Všetko je niekedy prvý raz, Páčim sa ti ?, Keď sa priatelia stanú čímsi viac..., Neopätovaná láska, Teraz, keď sme spolu, Rozísť sa je ťažké, Nový začiatok.
