13: Thirteen Stories That Capture the Agony and Ecstasy of Being Thirteen

Preview:

If you want to know the truth... Sometimes Im not sure who I am anymore. Thirteen. Its an age of wonder...or dread. The best year of your life...or maybe the worst ever. Youve just become an official teenager, even though youre not quite sure you feel like one, but youre no longer a kid, either. Here, from fourteen different points of view, are stories about that wonderful, terrible time. The big bar mitzvah that goes suddenly, wildly, hilariously out of control. A first kiss and a realization about ones sexual orientation. A crush on a girl that ends up putting the boy who likes her in the hospital. A pair of sneakers that a kid has to have, no matter what. Written by some of todays finest writers for young adults, these stories by turns funny and sad, wrenching and moving truly capture the agony and ecstasy of being thirteen.
