Have you ever had problems in your life and don't know how to be happy? If so, you will find "Being a Happy Teenager" (write) by the Australian writer, Andrew Matthews, useful.
Andrew Matthews is a writer, cartoonist and speaker. His books have been translated into many languages. He has been on over 2,000 (radio) and TV programmes. In this book, Matthews tells us how (have) a happy life and answers the questions of teenagers.
There are many topics such as parents and friends, and the book says we should stop (be) angry and forgive. The book tells us about (use) skills such as how to put what you have learned into pictures in your mind to make your memory better. Many teenagers think that (happy) comes from good exam marks or praise from other people, But you can still be happy when there are no such "good" things.
(succeed) comes from a good attitude. If you learn from (problem), you will have success in the future. Some schoolboys have problems such as (be) too tall or too short. But Matthews tells us happiness comes from (think) about things in a positive way,
If you are tall, people notice you and you can get a better view at the cinema; if you are short, your clothes and shoes take up less room in your bedroom! This is Matthews' most important lesson: you choose to be happy!
