5.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent collection of short stories for young adults,
By
This review is from: Connections (Paperback)
I am so pleased to see this book back in print. I first used this book in a summer school class for entering freshmen six years ago, and my students loved it. There are wonderful stories to be found here, from some of the best writers of young adult fiction in the business. Chris Crutcher's "A Brief Moment in the Life of Angus Bethune" is probably the best of the book (and far better than the movie "Angus"). There is also an absolutely first-rate rarity, the second-person point of view story, in Gordon Korman's hilarious "A Reasonable Sum." If you're a teacher looking for some contemporary short stories for teenagers, or you just love to read well-written stories, then "Connections" is a great find.
