The photos in this book are bold and not retouched. The capture a moment in time for these teens in schools from exclusive to hard-up. Each teen writes a biograhical vignette that accompanies each photograph and they are as varied as the students. Simply looking at the pictures will not tell you who is in Phillips Academy or the public school in Boston. This book resonated with the teens in my library adviory group because their were kids that looked and sounded like them and their friends.
