Going on 15: Memoirs of Freshmen, (Paperback)

Freshman writers at Durham School of the Arts, a public arts magnet school in North Carolina, share the stories of their teenage lives in this wide-ranging collection of short memoirs. Originally written for a class project, the memoirs were edited by student Kaitlin Medlin and staff and supervised by teacher Alexa Garvoille. Covering topics from the power of the arts to the effects of abuse, from journeys of faith to chronicles of friendship, Going on 15: Memoirs of Freshmen reminds adult and teen readers alike to look beyond the friends, the classmates, the students, or the children we think we know, and listen to their voices.
