Edited by Michael Cart
A collection of short stories by Nikki Grimes, Lois Lowry, Walter Dean Myers, Joyce Carol Thomas, and many other excellent young adult authors. Sometimes troubled, sometimes in serious situations, all of the characters in these stories explore their relationship to family. One young man visits his dad on death row, a pair of teen sisters take their little brother to the hospital after a drug overdose, and a teenage son tries to make sense of his two moms' relationship...many different kinds of families are described in stories and poetry. Five stars.
