註釋Otis deals with the real-life consequences of online aggression; Artiqua dates a boy of another race despite her family's opposition. Charlene is raising her brothers and sisters because their mother is addicted to drugs; Craig is gay and worried about coming out. All of these teens have had more than their share of troubles. And all have the resiliency needed to face their troubles, live through them, and move forward with courage, confidence, and hope. In thirty first-person narratives, teen writers share how they've overcome obstacles in their lives. As teens read, they discover they're not alone in facing life's difficulties. They learn about seven resiliencies everyone needs to survive and thrive in even the toughest times: insight; independence; relationships; initiative; creativity; humor; and morality. In this updated edition, new stories feature topics such as social media, gender identity, and drug addiction. A ''Think About It'' section at the end of each story offers questions for personal reflection or discussion. Vivid, articulate, and candid, these stories will motivate readers of all ages to build the skills and strengths they need to triumph over adversity.
