Beatrice Sparks Knihy
Beatrice Sparksová bola americká autorka známa svojimi knihami, ktoré boli prezentované ako skutočné denníky dospievajúcich. Tieto diela sa venovali aktuálnym témam ako zneužívanie drog, satanizmus, tínedžerske tehotenstvo či AIDS a slúžili ako varovné príbehy. Sparksová sa prezentovala ako objaviteľka a redaktorka denníkov, hoci záznamy naznačujú, že bola uvedená ako ich výhradná autorka. Jej motiváciou bolo zdieľať skúsenosti s dospievajúcimi a vytvárať príbehy, ktoré by varovali iných mladých ľudí pred pádom do podobných pascí.

When Annie discovers she's pregnant by her boyfriend, she's devastated. She has never felt so alone. With no one she can talk to, she pours her heart out to her diary, confiding her feelings of panic, self-doubt, and the desperate hope that some day she can turn her life around. She decides she wants to keep her baby and dreams of loving and caring for this little person. But after the baby is born, it's in her diary that she faces the agonizing question: Can she really raise this child on her own?
When Kim can't handle things, she eats. Then she purges. Sometimes she fasts. She knows she isn't as thin as the other girls on her gymnastics team, and she's worried that now, away from home for the first time as a college freshman, she won't be able to live up to expectations -- especially her own. Eating is the one thing she can control -- or can she?
