Sixteen: Stories About That Sweet and Bitter Birthday

An incredible anthology of 16 short-stories by award winning & critically acclaimed young-adult authors, inspired by all the angst, melodrama, and wonderment of being sixteen. These hilarious, poignant, and touching tales capture all the emotions and milestones of this age ranging from first love to establishing oneâ€™s own identity. A perfect read for anyone about to reach this pivotal age, or those who want reminisce about their â€œsweetestâ€ year.Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
Â
Sarah Dessenâ€™s â€œInfinityâ€ is about a girl confronting two major milestones: getting her driverâ€™s license and losing her virginity. The Dead Girls in Jacqueline Woodsonâ€™s â€œNebraska 99â€ have already decided to â€œdo itâ€ and must now cope with being teenage mothers. And Carolyn Macklerâ€™s â€œMona Lisa, Jesus, Chad, and Meâ€ explores whether friendship can survive when partying and prayer clash. Also included is a new Jessica Darling story by Megan McCafferty about the last fifteen minutes Jessica spendsâ€”or rather, doesnâ€™t spendâ€”with her best friend, Hope, who is leaving Pineville.

Featuring stories by Steve Almond, M. T. Anderson, Julianna Baggott, Cat Bauer, Emma Forrest, Tanuja Desai Hidier, David Levithan, Sarah Mlynowski, Sonya Sones, Zoe Trope, Ned Vizzini, and Joseph Weisberg.
