Youth can be magical, frightening, disappointing and life-altering. This collection of world visions explores our lives through youthful eyes and the universe they inhabit. These stories explore the relationship between brother, sister, revenge and even the danger that can come from play. One heroine takes us through the life of a young girl who copes with her anger at the loss of her father, while others show how painful school and relationships can be. And within each tale, the strength and resilience of youth are uncovered as they grasp life and make the most of it.
