The adolescent experience appears to adversely affect self esteem; more sensitive about their appearance and how others view them. Thus, it is important to assess changes in self esteem between early, middle, and late adolescents. AIM OF THE STUDY: 1.

To determine the effectiveness of Bibliotherapy on self esteem among adolescent girls in experimental group and control group. 3. To associate the level of self esteem with selected demographic variables of adolescent girls in the experimental group.

Non probability convenient sampling technique was adopted to select 30 adolescent girls from each experimental and control group. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used for data analysis. RESULTS: The mean pretest score 61.67 is lesser than mean post test score 72.30. This denotes the administration of Bibliotherapy was effective. The calculated ‘t’ value of 5.194 was statistically highly significant at p<0.001 level. The findings revealed that there was significant association between age and level of self-esteem.
