Growing Up Filipino Stories for Young Adults

In this fine short-story collection, 29 Filipino American writers explore the universal challenges of adolescence from the unique perspectives of teens in the Philippines or in the U.S. Organized into five sections--Family, Angst, Friendship, Love, and Home--all the stories are about growing up and what the introduction calls "growing into Filipino-ness, growing with Filipinos, and growing in or growing away from the Philippines...." The stories are delightful! (Booklist)Brainard, Cecilia M. is the author of 'Growing Up Filipino Stories for Young Adults', published 2003 under ISBN 9780971945807 and ISBN 0971945802.
