### 5/5 — Great book for teens

*2012-05-30, version 1.2.1*

I recommend for 9 to 17

### 5/5 — Absolutely Awesome!

*2012-04-24, version 1.2.1*

This app addresses relevant issues for today's students while incorporating a media format that grabs their interest.  It's a Win Win.

### 5/5 — Great app for social issues of tweens and teens

*2012-03-23*

As an occupational therapist who works with students who have difficulty with self esteem and issues relating to peers, this comic strip style book is great as a social skills conversation starter.
Easy to read, helpful and relevant!

### 5/5 — Perfect for teens!!!

*2012-03-19*

These lessons are great for teens trying to fit in and learn about themselves.  The stories are also presented in a way that teens can relate to them as something similar happening to them or a friend.  I don't have middle school aged kids, but I can use these stories to start a discussion with my little ones to make sure they will have self-confidence in themselves as they grow up.  Highly recommended app!!!

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2012-02-15*

This is a great book for kids to learn self-confidence. The story lines are all along the problems kids face on a day to day basis. It's real and down to earth. I love the positiveness in this book also.

### 5/5 — Fantastic Tool!

*2012-02-15*

Both Middle School book apps are such a gift to help our kids maneuver through this period of life!

### 5/5 — This Book is Awesome!

*2011-12-02*

This graphic novel has tons of helpful information.  It really helps!  I find it hard to fit in.  I've learned to like myself for who I am.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2011-10-29, version 1.1.2*

Fantastic lessons put in such an easily understandable way.

### 5/5 — Very well done and so needed by tweens and teens

*2011-10-11*

Thank you for creating such a thoughtful "self-help comic strip" for an age group who may need it the most. It's nicely produced and touches on critical themes of fitting in, self confidence and why kids this age are so susceptible to criticism from peers - all in revelations from the characters themselves. I look forward to sharing this with my 2 middle schoolers and seeing more produced; as parents and educators of middle schoolers know, there are myriad themes that are begging to be covered.

### 5/5 — Great app!  Thanks for providing a valuable and engaging way to reach teens!

*2011-09-12*

The lessons are so timely and important and you built an app that will reach kids where they're at today!  Please make more!  Thanks!

### 5/5 — Great use of iPad Features

*2011-07-31, version 1.0.1*

Truly engages Tweens in an environment they love. Thank you for helping tweens receive the message in a venue that really speaks to them and their interests.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2011-06-03, version 1.0.1*

Very well done, beautiful graphics and great sounds

### 5/5 — Awesome app!!!

*2011-05-16*

This very simple app has helped my 10-year-old boy overcome his Middle School fears. That is PRICELESS! It's also very enjoyable for us adults. I'm glad that these software developers are using devices like the iPad to help create such positive online experiences.

The graphics for this comic book type app look VERY nice and to the point but the writing makes it all a real work of art.

Thank you again!!!

### 5/5 — Great graphic comic for kids-review by Megan Bratti,MS,CCC-SLP @avocadotech

*2011-05-16, version 1.0.1*

I highly recommend this beautifully illustrated graphic comic book for kids, tweens, teenagers and adults. Easy to read in bubble text with mirroring images. Each chapter is a lesson (bullying for example) in itself. A great resource for parents, teachers, speech language pathologists, siblings and kids of all ages!

### 5/5 — Middle school confidential

*2011-05-15, version 1.0.1*

Me and my son loved it, we will like to read more :)

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2011-05-11*

This app deals with many issues our middle schoolers face in a fun way.   The pictures and sound effects are great.  Our kids really love the graphic novel format.   Great job!

### 5/5 — A great message for Middle School children!

*2011-05-10*

The graphic novel nature of the app draws the reader into the story. The stories are so relatable to today's youth, yet the message is appropriate for people of all ages. The ease of navigating within the app is intuitive and user-friendly. Although there is no built-in audio support for non-readers who are Middle School age, the readability level of the app is appropriate for struggling readers. As an educator, I am excited to try this out with our middle school students with iPads. As a parent, I am loading this onto my son's device today as he prepares for middle school.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 3/5 — Great themes and design

*2011-11-07*

Great themes/lessons important for this targeted age group.
I liked the graphic cartoon style and easy to read text/font.
Loved the simple sound effects from the different scenes ie rain, clapping, music.
Found the characters endearing but the dialogue not very realistic for the age group.
They spoke more like adults, in my opinion.
The lessons were very obvious (good for some age groups) and felt like i was being told rather than shown.  
Loved chapter 3 the best.

### 4/5 — A great app

*2012-02-20, version 1.2*

I really enjoyed tHis app but I was able to read it in about 20 minutes that's why I gave it a 4

### 4/5 — A good way to introduce your kids in the feelings they will have when entering the teenage years!

*2011-07-25*

When I originally requested to review this app I had a soon to be ten years old.    But after going through the app myself, I got reminded how awkward being a teenager can be and think that all my kids will enjoy going through this reading when they come in age to understand the struggles they are facing as a young man or woman when they arrive to the ages of 11 to 14 years old.

This digital graphic novel is very interactive with each image that you go through and will keep the attention of your child.  At times you will hear birds chirping, laughter, frustration coming out of someone and so on.

I have enjoyed going through the story and the interactivity included in this app.  I almost wish that something similar to that would have existed in my years of high school – back in the 80s.   This particular story contains 8 chapters which will cover the followings;  , Do you like the way you look?, Sometimes I worry What Other People Think, Sometimes I just Lose It, Meet the Opinionator, Fact Finder – Getting The Truth, I Don’t Get It, I’m Stressed Out!, I Like Who I Am.    Each chapter will present the feelings you can experience and give you some ideas on how to deal with it.    It’s not easy growing up and it comes a time when you feel less than adequate.   I sure know about it.   I remember going through a though time when I was in high school.  

Mind you I completely realize that this product is probably written with a secular perspective.  However, I think that it covers important aspects of going through the difficult years of being a teenager.   

At this moment in time, my oldest son does not need to go through the app but if needed be I would let him read this as well as find Christian curriculum to help him deal with this.   Part of me wishes that something similar would exist with a Christian perspective.   Still this graphic novel as an app is interesting and will provide some answers to questions your teenager might have.   Since it is a secular product, I would suggest that you go through it with your child and discuss what you read together.

### 5/5 — Great way to learn confidence

*2020-08-12*

Amazing!

### 5/5 — Very Good

*2015-05-05*

I'm actually in Elementary School and I love this app because it helps me think about what happens or give me a clue about what might happen in Middle School

### 5/5 — Awesome app!!!

*2014-04-16, version 1.4.1*

It really helps kids learn what will happen when they go to middle school.

### 5/5 — Cool book

*2013-08-16, version 1.3.1*

This book covered some important topics. It was fun to read. It talked about everyday life for teens and pre-teens.

### 5/5 — Middle School Confidential

*2012-09-30, version 1.3.1*

### 5/5 — Self esteem and stress

*2012-07-17, version 1.2.1*

Great message on self esteem and stress

## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great messages if you can get them to read it...

*2012-07-02*

Maybe ask them to evaluate it for you: "Is this any good?" Funny and looks at lots of ways that kids can undermine or support each other and themselves. Sketchy, lively artwork.

### 5/5 — Awesome book

*2012-06-27, version 1.2.1*

This will help me a lot in the future

### 5/5 — Great book

*2012-06-22, version 1.2.1*
