Owning It

Product Description

There's a lot to deal with when you're a teenager - school, teachers, parents, friends, girlfriends, and boyfriends. The teens in these ten stories deal with all of those and the challenges of having a disability. Chris Crutcher takes on a wild ride through the mind of a teen with ADD, while in David Lubar's tale, Brad gets a sobering lesson from his friends. In Gail Giles's story, Alex can't help barking at his classmates, but he finds understanding when he gives a comical (and informative) presentation to his entire school. And Robert Lipsyte introduces us to an elite task force whose number-one enemy is cancer.
