Each essay is a powerful look into the world of the teenage girl. Topics range from body image to sex and everything in between. This is a must read for anyone who works with teens or simply has a teen in their life. ( ) All of the essays in this book were written by girls ages 13-19, with the only criteria being that they had to write about their lives. While all of the essays are much more well written than the average high schooler could do (and trust me, I've seen some of the stuff kids leave in the printer when they accidentally print more than one copy of something -- it's not pretty), but some of them are extremely well written, period. A few of these essays just blew me away. Girls wrote about their bodies, their friends and families, eating disorders, 9/11, Hurricane Katrina, music, Johnny Depp, rock climbing and many more topics. These girls are smart and articulate and brilliant. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
A vivid portrait of what it means to be a teenage girl in America today. Teenage girls today live their life in words--in text and instant messages, on blogs and social network pages. It's how they conduct their friendships and present themselves to the world, but they are also creating a formidable body of personal written work. This generation's unprecedented comfort level with the written word has led to a fearless new American literature. These collected essays offer a key to understanding one of the most mislabeled and underestimated members of society. Here, nearly sixty teenage girls from across the country, representing a diverse spectrum of socioeconomic, political, racial, and religious backgrounds, create a rich portrait of life as a teen girl in America today, revealing the complicated inner lives, humor, hopes, struggles, thrills, and obsessions of this generation.--From publisher description.
