This collection includes nineteen brand new stories for teens from authors across Canada. Although each reflects in some way the theme of identity, multiple genres and styles flourish side by side, their pages engaging the reader with brevity and power. From talented newbies to veteran virtuosos, these authors present a spectrum of teenagers who vigorously sing out, "I'm here!"
"Readers of all sorts will find their place in these stories of community, struggle, acceptance and redemption. There's room for all, there's a place for all. Fling open the doors and the covers of this book—all are welcome here!"
— Deborah Ellis, acclaimed novelist and author of the new short story collection Go.
