Teen Read Week Giveaway

Today is day five of our Teen Read Week Giveaway, and we are talking about current issues books. Just post a response on our blog and tell us which are the most popular or favorite issue books for teens in your school or library and you are eligible to receive a free book of your choice from the entire Enslow collection.

One of our favorite new issues series is Life–A How-To Guide series about a variety of issues that teens face in their everyday lives. Titles in this series include: Choosing a Community Service Career, Dealing with Stress, Friendship, Getting Ready to Drive, Getting the Hang of Fashion and Dress Codes, Using Technology, and Volunteering. Fun quizzes and sidebars are included making these books great for research reports as well as personal reading.

Important Teen Guides

Enslow's new series, Life–A How-to Guide is a 7-book series for teens about a variety of issues that they face in their everyday lives. Whether you have a teen who is getting ready to driving or driving already, our Getting Read to Drive: A How-to Guide is great for research or personal use. Driving can play a pivotal role in a young person's life. It represents freedom but it also requires responsibility. From deciding if you're ready to drive, to the rules and safety, this book is a comprehensive guide for young drivers and their parents.

Technology has become so integrated into the life of today’s teenager that it is changing the way the American family communicates.  That's why we felt that Using Technology: A How-to Guide was an important book to include in this series. From cell phone etiquette, to texting, playing games, and listening to music, this title explores different forms of technology and how it affects our lives, and most importantly, how kids can stay safe using it.

Congratulations to Enslow author Ed Sobey!

Imagining the Future series

Imagine if someday your class could visit faraway places or go back in time with the push of a button. Where would you like to go? What might you learn?

Enslow’s new Imagining the Future series includes six titles that not only teach children about the past and present, but also includes open-ended questions, like these, to stimulate young readers’ imaginations about the future. Topics include schools, staying in touch, houses, getting around, community helpers, and how children play. This unique series is not only great for teaching social studies but also makes a wonderful addition to lessons on technology for grades K–3.
