My website has resources for parents, teachers, other professionals and teenagers. You will also find my teaching materials, Brain Sticks and Stress Well for Schools, and the ebook, Exam Attack. My books, including Blame My Brain, The Teenage Guide to Stress and The Teenage Guide to Friends, are written for teenagers and but popular with adults. I am working on LIFE ONLINE (2019) and POSITIVELY TEENAGE (2018). I’ve also written award-winning novels for teenagers. I do events, lectures and seminars around the world, for schools, conferences and other organisations, as well as consultancy work on anything relating to adolescence, wellbeing, stress, life online and the science of reading, Readaxation and reading for pleasure. Do contact me.
