First Crossing by Donald R Gallo

First Crossing by Donald R Gallo

Stories by eleven well-known authors touch on a variety of teen experiences, with enough attitude and angst to speak to young adults anywhere. -- School Library Journal

Fleeing from political violence in Venezuela, Amina and her family have settled in the United States. Sarah, adopted, is desperate to know her Korean birth parents. Adrian's friends have some spooky -- and hilarious -- misconceptions about his Romanian origins. Whether their transition is from Mexico to the United States or from Palestine to New Mexico, the characters in this anthology have all ventured far and have faced countless challenges. Each of these stories is unique, and each one has something to say to all of us.

Donald R. Gallo is the recipient of the ALAN Award for outstanding contributions to the field of adolescent literature and the foremost anthologist of short stories for teenagers in the country. Wendy J. Glenn is Assistant Professor in the Department of Curriculum and Instruction in the Neag School of Education at the University of Connecticut. She is the author of Sarah Dessen: From Burritos to Box Office (Scarecrow, 2005).
