Tools 4 Life, LLC is proud to announce the release of the first in a series of Christian-based books.

Tools 4 Teens, Real Life * Real Answers, is a powerful book with a unique twist. Tools 4 Teens serves up real-life stories about real-life issues surrounding today’s teen. Our format is visually striking to capture a teenager’s eye including the addition of our personalization. This feature enables parents to add a collection of their own photographs to their individual book- a true one-of-a-kind keepsake.

Tools 4 Teens was created with multiple goals in mind. Our main objective is to provide straightforward information that deals with the realities of teenage life today for teens from all social backgrounds. Our book is designed to equip teenagers with critical information so they can make educated choices as they maneuver through difficult and challenging years. Our purpose is not to scare but to prepare teens. We believe knowledge is power and the information contained within our pages comes from authorities who work closely with teens. Each issue is backed with relevant scripture giving the reader “spoon-fed” spiritual guidance.

Inside Tools 4 Teens you will find thirty-one incredible, digitally-produced scrapbook pages, individually tailored to capture your teen’s attention in an informative manner. The message is served up in "bits and bites" making it an easy read for teen’s between the ages of 13 and 18.

Although teenagers in general deal with many of the same issues, boys and girls approach and deal with situations differently. To that end we created separate books for girls and boys that deal specifically with issues for each gender. Some of the subjects covered in the Girl’s 1st Edition include: Abstinence, Peer Pressure, Dating Abuse, Drug and Alcohol use. The Boy’s 1^st Edition covers issues of Self Esteem, Relationship with Fathers, Forgiveness and Drug and Alcohol use and their consequences. Each topic is supported with advice and facts from experts who offer practical and thought-provoking Words of Wisdom.

Our website www.tools4teens.net guides parents through several simple steps to order their personalized book. The addition of their Dedication Letter adds one more special touch to this original keepsake.
