More Voices, More Visions (Teen Ink)

The second edition of Teen Ink captures the essence of what it means to be a teenager through honest voices that reverberate with the emotional highs and lows of teenage years. It is a diverse collection of prose, poetry, fiction and art representing the compelling moments that define teens' lives.

Pieces for this book were chosen from a collection of more than 300,000 submissions to TeenInk magazine, a nonprofit publication read by 3.5 million teens nationwide. Since its inception, TeenInk (formerly The 21st Century) has published more than 25,000 students. These young authors produce fresh, creative, honest and always compelling words that make TeenInk the standard for teen expression.

Subsequent books in this extraordinary series will focus on individual topics, exploring the extraordinary feelings and opinions of today's teens.

KLIATT

A good-looking, well-put-together collection of teen writing and visual art from around the country. Organized thematically, the work ranges in quality, but shows a wide range of student skill and interest. This collection will be useful to teachers teaching creative writing and inspirational for students interested in writing, but will likely need to be "marketed" to other students in order to be checked out. A good choice for reluctant readers—students love to read other student's work! Short biographies add to the accessibility of the collection. KLIATT Codes: JS—Recommended for junior and senior high school students. 2001, HCI, 366p. illus., $12.95. Ages 13 to 18. Reviewer: Sarah Applegate; Libn., River Ridge H.S., Lacey, WA , September 2001 (Vol. 35 No. 5)
