Opis

"Miss Kitty's Guide" presents 13 common Monsters of Middle School with their faux Latin names such as Nastensis popularis for the Mean Popular Girl, Reactus hystericus for the Drama Queen and Brutus meanus for the Bully. The following sections appear for each Monster: (this example refers to the Bully): - "How to Identify Brutus meanus" (lists the monster's characteristics and how to spot them) - "Why the Brutus meanus is Dangerous" (identifies the perils associated with this Monster) - "Why You Must Protect Yourself" (points out what might happen if kids are not careful) - "How to Protect Yourself" (gives kids specific pointers for handling this Monster) - "The Secret You Must Know About Brutus meanus" (reveals the soft underbelly of this Monster, what makes it vulnerable, and why the Monster behaves the way it does) - "What Happens to Brutus meanus if It Doesn't Change" (describes what this Monster will turn into as an adult if it doesn't change its ways; for example Brutus meanus might end up as the "Raging Sports Dad" or the "Evil Boss") At the end of each section, "Miss Kitty's Exercises for Defining a Good Life" provide an interactive experience for the reader where they are encouraged to delve deeper into their own "inner monster," and develop an awareness of the potential pitfalls of an un-examined life.
