This book is dedicated to my beautiful daughter, Alexis, who will be graduating from Elementary School and moving onto the dreaded yet crazy times of Middle School.

As we all know, Middle School years can be a scary time for anyone. These years will be filled with turbulent times ahead. There will be drama of making new friends, increased school work load and fitting in without losing your own personality.

I wrote this Middle School survivor guide to empower her to face these challenges with bravery and excitement. This time will give her an opportunity to define who she really is. She can create her own destiny and really define who and what she's all about.

I discuss topics such as:

* Changes That You’ll See In Middle School
* Lockers – Your Own Space FINALLY!
* New Grading System
* Best Parts of Middle School
* Worst Parts of Middle School
* The clock is your new friend
* Hints To Survive the Transition Between Elementary School and Middle School
* Volunteering - Advantages of helping you make new friends
* Fitting In - How to become the Popular One
* Tips On Making New Friends - Even When You Don't Know Anyone
* Bullying - How To Prevent It
* Bullying - What To Do If You Are Being Bullied
* Drugs and Alcohol - What You Need To Know
* Sex - And How It Involves You
