We’re excited to announce the publication of our newest Young Authors’ Book Project, Things Will Get Better & More Delicious: Stories from Our Lives So Far.
In this collection of “memoirs remixed,” 40 7th graders from the Boston Teachers Union Pilot School explore stories from their lives across multiple forms and genres, including a conversation between the Dominican Republic and Boston, a recipe for love and family, and a 7th-grade survival guide. Inspired by the work of Sherman Alexie, Maxine Hong Kingston, and Justin Torres, each essay is accompanied by a student-designed ink print.
