Recommend good books on non-theism for teens, please
I've raised all of my three daughters in a non-theistic household. My oldest just rolls her eyes at discussion of religion. My middle child is 13 and is so much fun to talk with. However, as we have all experienced, the middle school years bring peer pressure. Her best friend is a devout Methodist and is incredulous that my daughter doesn't believe in a deity. To her credit, my daughter is very good at asking questions and making her friends think about their statements.
She is going on a Methodist "Discovery" weekend trip with her friend this weekend. I'm ok with it and told her to please go and come back and we can discuss the events. I want to give her a good, age appropriate book dealing with non-theism. Any suggestions out there would be helpful as I look around this weekend at the bookstore.
On edit: I was just thinking that a book that deconstructs Christianity might be of interest as well.

She does seem to be very good at listening and not pushing. I think she really is interested in learning more about Christianity and understanding her friends' positions. I just know that without a reinforcement of rationality here and there, the feel-good Christian shtick can suck em in at this age. I don't think she will be sucked in but I want to give her some stuff to read from the other side.
I really do think it is important to give them the ability to make their decisions about attending Christian functions. I want her to hear their perspective. But then I want her to hear mine as well. Since I don't have a church and happy-clappy music and friends and sleepovers, I don't appeal to the 13 year old brain. 
But, she is very, very sharp. I know that she will take it all in stride, reflect and come up with her own opinions. That's what I want for here anyway.
Now, if she votes Republican ever then she is disowned.
