About This Book
A parent would reach for this book when their teenager seems to be retreating into themselves or carrying a burden they are not yet ready to vocalize. This collection of fifteen short stories explores the private lives of adolescents, touching on themes of hidden identities, family struggles, secret relationships, and the weight of shame. It provides a safe space for teens to realize that everyone carries secrets and that these hidden truths shape our identities. Because it is an anthology, it offers diverse perspectives on trust and honesty, making it an excellent tool for normalizing the complex internal world of high schoolers.
