Who am I without him? : Short stories about girls and the boys in their
lives by Sharon G. Flake ****
A girl seeks advice on how to steal her best friend's thug. A boy discovers
what it means to be a man through his treatment of a woman. A teen's severe
skin disorder makes her retreat inside her own room, inside her own head.
Confronted daily with tough issues that seem only to increase as the school
day wears on, adolescents of all complexions struggle to make a place for
themselves in society while defining their significance in terms of their
allure to the other gender.
Spellbound by Janet McDonald *****
Raven Jefferson is a fifteen-year old high school dropout on welfare
living with her mother and infant son in the projects of Brooklyn. When
her sister encourages her to enter a spelling bee whose prize is a college
scholarship, Raven is wary, but she rises to the challenge.
