Please explain

I work in a Ninth Grade Academy. We have this book on our shelves. It is a fantastic book for Freshman. It is engaging and on their "level". But...Can someone tell me why the price on this book is so high? I can't seem to find any information on the reason for the increase.

What an awesome idea!

I just recieved a copy of this book, and I am soon going to have my son read it (he is an upcoming freshman). It helps me to know that he is reading about the "tough stuff," and that he is learning that he won't be the only one that feels all the things that an new freshman does. The sophomores that wrote this book must be very talented and I hope that they earn the respect they deserve for all their hard work!

Great advice from sophomores to freshmen!!!

What a great idea--- students advising students on the freshman year in high school. This book is full of wonderful advice; the students have really researched their topics, and they know what they are writing about. Every high school, middle school, and public library should have copies of this invaluable book! How lucky these students are to have a teacher like Dawn Burnette. Keep up the great work!

BEST BOOK EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This book is the best guide i have ever found for a middle-schooler about to enter high school!!! This book is soooo cool!!! It has cartoons and stories and quizzes and a TON of different books and websites that have even more information!!! i love this book becuase it is funny, but it is serious too- it has everything anyone needs to know about what to expect in high school!!! I know i am going to be the most prepared student in my class becuase of this book! everyone should own a copy!!! I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Parents-Get inside your High Schooler's Head!

This book has the novelty of being written by High School Sophmores,( I believe Dawn Burnette was their teacher), the information will help us as parents understand what kind of issues are relevant today. There is a great balance of humor, but serious issues lke peer pressure, depression, are handled the way I want my children to handle them. I can't recommend this book highly enough. Besides, how many books have you read that have 60 10th grade authors?
