What You Must Think of Me by Emily Ford 2007 New York: Oxford University Press
Nonfiction
Life seems normal for Emily in elementary school. She is popular with other girls and does well in school. Until 5th grade. She begins to become painfully aware of herself and what she thinks others think of her. Her parents and teachers think she is shy. As she goes through high school, the problem gets worse. Emily thinks others are talking about her. She feels left out when she sees other girls with close friendships . The book concludes with Emily in her present life. She is dealing well with her social anxiety, but not without a lot of help from psychologists and money to pay for it all from her parents. This book may speak to a high school student going through similar feelings.
