School Library Journal Review
Gr 7-10-In eight brief chapters, stalking is defined, common characteristics of stalkers are identified, cases of celebrities who have been victims are recounted, and suggestions are given for ways to protect oneself. Full-color photos appear throughout. The list for further reading includes Elaine Landau's Stalking (Watts, 1996), which presents a starker picture of the depth of desolation that victims face. Cynthia Wright's Everything You Need to Know about Dealing with Stalking (Rosen, 1999) takes a more personalized view. Goodnough's book is a more straightforward resource for reports. These titles offer teens information from a slightly different perspective, but all provide solid advice regarding personal safety.-Marilyn Fairbanks, Azure IRC, Brockton High School, MA (c) Copyright 2010.
