good parenting books

Does anyone know any good books about parenting a “tween” girl? Serious only, please!?
I have a 12 year old daughter and a 6 year old son. My son is ADHD, which is tough, but he does quite well on his meds. (Except A.M.) Anyway, it’s my daughter. She is just so moody, argumentative, difficult!! I know it’s mainly hormonal, because she is normally good, but I need help fast. If I can’t figure out how to get through to her now… I just want to keep our relationship from getting ruined!!!
12 years old – AAAAArgh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mine is 12 and has ADHD. I wish I could help you but I can’t even help myself.
I have a link that may at least tell you what you are to expect. And another one that will help her understand herself.
