The format of this book makes it especially accessible to tweens and reluctant readers. Modeled in the style of the popular "choose your own adventure" books, this short novel introduces us to Tina, a young girl who faces peer pressure to drink after being assigned to a group project in school. By selecting different options from a number of scenario choices, readers get to experience peer pressure from the safety of a book and are provided with many potential options for resisting it. The situations enumerated in the story could facilitate important discussions with parents and/or teachers.
