“Secrets Girls Keep is compelling in its honesty, openness, and just plain good sense. Written for teenage girls, who face pressures that are almost impossible to imagine, it models getting beneath the silence and shame that all too often accompany life problems (e.g., loss, sex, abuse, eating problems, mood disorder) and actively engages them in self-exploration and disclosure. A vitally important book.” Stephen Hinshaw, Ph.D., Professor and Chair, Department of Psychology, UC Berkeley; author of The Triple Bind: Saving our Teenage Girls from Today’s Pressures.

“Carrie-Silver Stock has done a marvelous job of addressing the challenges teen girls face. Let’s face it, it’s not easy growing up, but here’s a book that provides real life stories, practical advice and seven “important” tips to help teen girls become more empowered, confident, healthy and productive. I will be recommending it to all the teen girls in my life… and their parents, too.” Susan Kallash-Bailey, Mother, and CEO of Solutions with Heart
“At a time when we’re all looking for change, we can’t forget the coming generations of young women in our world. Carrie’s book isn’t a “How-To” book, it goes much deeper, providing first hand examples of why it might be a difficult journey for young women in today’s world, but not an impossible one. The Seven Secrets should be memorized by everyone who is a preteen girl or knows one.” Magi Henderson, Glen Carbon Centennial Library, Youth Services Director
