I have a daughter on the cusp of middle school, when the girls are just starting to get into the familiar patterns of female-to-female relational aggression so common at that stage.

Rating:  - very useful
This book has the ability to connect with the girls experiencing the negative clique effects, not just her parents. I recommend it highly
Rating: - Mean chicks, cliques, and dirty tricks
Wonderful help for a 13 year old daughter. She read it with great interest and I feel it helped her understand some of the problems she is experiencing as a 13 year old

This book is a must for all young girls. This book is "real" and is a great foundation for developing character for young girls who must deal with the rough tough meaness of the female world. It validates the sad reality and garbage stuff that's really going on among young girls.
