18 Fredericksburg Parent and Family • March 2015 Clutter Control, published by the American Girl se- ries, is an easy approach to making sense of your bedroom, backpack, locker and more. Quizzes, surveys and flow-charts help figure out what in your life is worth keeping and what can be thrown away. Colorful and acces- sible, the book is a perfect guide for middle schoolers who want their organizing to also be fun and fashionable! Organizing the Disor- ganized Child by Martin L. Kutscher and Marcella Moran allows you to take the struggle for orderli- ness to the front lines: your child's classroom. We learn that before you can confront the specific issues at hand, it is important to identify your own child's organizational style; the techniques that work for visual organizers may not for spatial/cozy organiz- ers. This short read addresses many helpful organizational factors, from note taking to time-management.
