Details. Condition: New. Format: Paperback. ISBN: 9781445158143. Publisher: Franklin Watts. Age Range: 11-14 years. Overview. Positively Teenage is a warm, evidence-based guide that helps young people navigate the ups and downs of adolescence with confidence. Written by well-being expert Nicola Morgan, it blends brain science, practical strategies and honest encouragement to support teens through the physical, emotional and social changes of these years. Packed with quick, actionable "Positive Boosts", it's designed to be dipped into again and again, making it a genuinely useful companion rather than a book to read once and shelve.. About the Book. Adolescence is so often framed as a difficult, even negative, stage of life, but Positively Teenage flips that narrative. Nicola Morgan draws on years of research into the teenage brain to show readers how to approach these years with optimism, self-understanding and real control over their own well-being. The book covers the full picture of teenage health: sleep, nutrition, exercise, managing stress, understanding emotions, navigating online life sensibly, and building the kind of resilience that lasts well beyond the teenage years. Rather than lecturing, Morgan explains the science behind certain habits and offers simple, realistic steps readers can put into practice immediately. Short "Positive Boost" features are scattered throughout, giving quick wins that fit into a busy teenage schedule. The tone is friendly and empowering, treating teenage readers as capable of understanding complex ideas about their own minds and bodies. It's equally useful as a personal read, a classroom PSHE resource, or a book parents can use to open conversations about well-being at home. The result is a book that equips young people with tools for coping with today's pressures - schoolwork, social media, friendships and family life - while building foundations for lifelong health..
