Leaving Home: Stories
How do we become who we need to be? How do we make the transition from child to adult? Sometimes we have very few people to guide us. Sometimes the journeys are lonely. Sometimes it takes a lot of courage to see how far we've come.  "Leaving Home" is a collection of stories by some of the world's most powerful writers (includingToni Morrison,Amy Tan,Gary Soto,Norma Fox Mazer, andSandra Cisneros) about departing from familiar worlds, encountering pain and confusion, finding a new way of being. Transcendent, magical, transforming . . . for readers young and old.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
