Editorial Reviews

Separated into eight broad topics—Understanding the Problem of Teen Pregnancy, If You Think You're Pregnant, Staying Healthy During Your Pregnancy, High-Risk Pregnancies and Pregnancy Complications, Childbirth, Your Newborn, Teen Parenting Problems and Solutions, and If You Need More Information—each part is then divided into a varying number of detailed chapters. Sensitive issues are handled in a matter-of-fact manner, allowing readers to absorb information without feeling implied judgment. Reluctant readers will not be intimidated by endless amounts of straight text; all readers will appreciate the audience-appropriate words and phrasing. As easy to browse as it is to use for completing student reports, with plenty of facts and figures provided, this book will serve many functions. If there is a question any teen or adult could conceivably think to ask on the topic of pregnancy, from various methods of prevention to potentially determining paternity without a DNA test, the answer just might be in these pages. There are also suggestions on how to break big jobs, like funding mother and child healthcare, into manageable tasks. A directory of resources complete with street addresses, telephone numbers, and websites; a specific list of groups who help low-income pregnant women; a directory of educational resources for teens; and a sizable index complete the book. As one of twenty-four titles in the Teen Health series, ranging from Sleep Information for Teens to Learning Disabilities Information for Teens, the whole series may be difficult to afford at one time, but librarians may want to continuously investigate individual titles and add as needed.

VOYA - Stacey Hayman

Gr 8 Up—Using articles reprinted with permission from sources such as the March of Dimes and The National Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy, this second edition gives updated information on unplanned pregnancies. While part one features aspects of the phenomenon as a social issue, the rest of the book provides health tips and options for teens who are pregnant. The chapters are accessible and succinct, often only a few pages long. The title helpfully includes several appendixes: "Teen Pregnancy Resources," "Assistance Resources for Low-Income Pregnant Women," and "Education Resources for Teen Parents."—Joanna K.
