The skills depicted are meant to be read, role-played, corrected when necessary, role-played some more and, finally, to be practiced by the student in real-life social situations. \"Thought bubbles\" show what people are thinking during these interactions (not always what you hoped ). Practical, engaging, and down-to-earth, this is a valuable tool to help teens navigate the often-mysterious rules of social conduct in everyday situations. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eHelpful sections include: \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eConversation \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBuilding and Maintaining Friendships \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAsserting Your Feelings \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eConflict Resolution \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAsking Someone Out on a Date \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDealing with School and Work \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDealing with Mistakes \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWorking with Others--Compromising \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eJob Interviewing \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e Order the book alone or along with the Accompanying CD  \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e (CD is meant to be used along with the book as a teaching tool.
