Description du livre Hardcover. Etat : Very good. Etat de la jaquette : Very good. Stan Mack (illustrateur). Second Printing [stated]. 126, [2] pages. Illustrations. For Further Reading. Janet Bode, 56, a writer raised in College Park whose 14 books about coping with the realities of life are among the most popular. Ms. Bode's blunt, no-nonsense writings dealt with issues that deeply affect people, including some sensitive topics that parents, teachers and counselors find difficult to discuss. In a series of more than a dozen nonfiction books she wrote about rape and other violence, the death of parents and peers, interracial dating, troubled love relationships, eating disorders, teenage pregnancy, sibling problems, and learning to develop trusting relationships. Inscribed by the author on the title page to William Raspberry. William Raspberry (October 12, 1935 - July 17, 2012) was an American syndicated public affairs columnist. He was also the Knight Professor of the Practice of Communications and Journalism at the Sanford Institute of Public Policy at Duke University. An African American, he frequently wrote on racial issues. Derived from a Kirkus review: Profiles a series of young people who overcame seemingly impossible odds--drugs, poverty, sexual abuse--and not only survived but became successes in their own right. The individual stories are believably told in the voices of the teens themselves; they range through the homeless, pregnant, handicapped, abused, addicted, or imprisoned to those fighting immigration authorities in order to remain in this country. For most, it's sheer inner strength that pulls them through; they cite such survival tactics as self-esteem, determination, devotion to studies, persistence, faith, and good mentors. Alternate chapters give the points of view of adults- -neighbor, counselor, psychologist, probation officer--who succinctly articulate survival skills; many have had bad times in their own youth. Bound to grip--and potentially valuable as a counseling tool. It says things that young people on the edge need to hear. Includes a final list of steps to success that are both feasible and rational.
