Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:If you want to know the truth... Thirteen. It's an age of wonder...or dread. The best year of your life...or maybe the worst ever. You've just become an official teenager, even though you're not quite sure you feel like one, but you're no longer a kid, either. Here, from fourteen different points of view, are stories about that wonderful, terrible time. The big bar mitzvah that goes suddenly, wildly, hilariously out of control. A first kiss — and a realization about one's sexual orientation. A crush on a girl that ends up putting the boy who likes her in the hospital. A pair of sneakers that a kid has to have, no matter what. Written by some of today's finest writers for young adults, these stories — by turns funny and sad, wrenching and moving — truly capture the agony and ecstasy of being thirteen. About the AuthorJames Howe is the author of many acclaimed and beloved books for teenagers and children, including The Misfits, The Watcher, and the best-selling Bunnicula and its many sequels, including the Tales from the House of Bunnicula books.
