Help!Need a good book for DS about Middle School

[Disneyglobegirl]

I would love to hear about any good books about the middle school years for my DS to read. He is 12 and kind of having a tough time adjusting. I'd like to find a book that he can read that might help him deal with issues that happen in middle school. The group of friends that he has hung out with all year seem to be going their separate ways and he is having a tough time with it. Lots of name calling going on between them all right now. He is my oldest and I am not sure how to help him through this. Thanks!

I found a couple books at Amazon.com for middle school kids that is suppose to deal with peer pressure, emotions and the basics of middle school. I guess I will go with that if no one has any recommendations.

Bumping for any other ideas.

Thanks

Ohhh...sorry...I have an awesome book from American Girl.... but it's titled "A SMART GIRL"S GUIDE TO STARTING MIDDLE SCHOOL".....too bad the word "girl" is in the title.

It talks about EVERYTHING in middle school...from locker problems, to friend problems, classes, teachers, you name it.

There really should be one for boys.

Thanks Daisyduck123 - I was looking at that one too since I do have a DD that will be going to middle school in a couple years - maybe I will go ahead and get it and say it is for DD but let DS read it too - LOL

You're welcome...and much of the book could be for both girls & boys.
