Product Description
by Margaux Trexler (Author)
Every day presents us with new challenges, and navigating those challenges takes guts and confidence. These vignettes explore ten aspects of being an introverted teenager. If you don't feel like you fit in, if you are different, if you aren't sure about yourself-take a look at these stories.
Author Margaux Trexler, a high-school student, shares the lessons she's learned over the last several years and how she's come to accept herself and appreciate her own strengths. She has come a long way toward embracing her introversion and valuing her quiet thoughtfulness and intelligence.
The path she describes in these stories is about discovering who you really are and getting comfortable being yourself. Maybe what everyone else thinks is the "right" thing to do isn't right for you. Being loud may make a girl popular, but it doesn't make her any more attractive deep down. Only true happiness can do that. Margaux's stories also deal with anxiety and the importance of offering compassion to others.
Filled with relatable insights and honest advice, Margaux's stories are a pat on the shoulder, an encouraging voice in the back of your head that says you are you-and that is a wonderful thing.
