Twenty-one short stories and poems from a wide array of cultures capture childhood and teenage life in Minnesota. The selections are all reflective of the landscape but are an interesting mix of genres and topics; the intended age levels are also quite varied, but this may limit the volume's overall usefulness. Questions for authors, prompts for classroom discussion, and creative writing activities are appended.
