Shipp, J.  (2010).  The Teen's Guide to World Domination:  Advice on Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Awesomeness.  New York, NY:  St. Martin's Griffin.  285p.  ISBN 10: 0-312-64154-0.

Summary:  In this self-help book, author Josh Shipp gives advice to teens on how to dominate their own world instead of allowing others to negatively influence their decision-making and self perception.  Using personal experiences, real-life issues, and the attitude of a big brother, Shipp delivers sound advice that gives the teen reader purpose instead of having to blindly navigate through his/her life as it happens around him/her.   He identifies “villains” that might hinder any success and joy, and he offers suggestions on how one can avoid these “villains” and be the “hero” of his/her own world.
