Between the Lines

Annotated Bibliography of Mental Health Books for Tweens

With an estimated 1 in 5 children experiencing mental health challenges every year, and suicide being the second leading cause of death in those ages 12-17, mental health in children has become an increasingly pressing public health issue. BeTWEEN the Lines: An Annotated Bibliography of Mental Health Books for Tweens is designed to confront this issue. The bibliography aims to act as a clearinghouse of mental health information, both fiction and non-fiction, for affected tweens and the adults in their lives.

Supported by a Carnegie Whitney Grant from the American Library Association.
