Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from How to Live With Your Teen-Ager
A multitude of people have studied the adolescent. They have measured his bones. They have assayed his intelligence. They have listened to his speech, observed his actions. They have looked with perceptiveness and vision into his fantasies and his dreams. They have watched him struggle through and come to grips with the ebb and flow of the cultural life that surrounds him. They have compared him as a sophisticate with his more primitive brother. Out of the meeting and mingling of various disciplines, the light comes reflected from many facets. I am grateful if I have been able to catch some of its rays on these pages.
More intimately and closely am I grateful to a small group of former students - now public-school teachers and good friends - who contributed some of the examples of what boys and girls in high school and junior high school have thought and said and done. My thanks in this regard go particularly to Alice Bohem, Paul Bohem, Dorothy Johnson, and Boyd Mathews.
My thanks go also to Judy Wolf who helped to think up the picture ideas, and to Lois Fisher who executed them so delightfully.
