¿de Veras?: Young Voices from the National Hispanic Cultural Center

(3) YA This compilation includes works (mostly poems, also a few essays and short stories) by teens of various ethnicities in an Albuquerque, New Mexico, writing program. There's some impressively mature work here, with poems that evoke a local flavor (green chiles and Route 66) along with more universal adolescent concerns. This will certainly appeal to budding teen writers. Short contributor bios are appended.
