Becoming Fierce

Nielsen, Susin(Foreword by)
See all formats and editions

Life is fierce. But so are you. Sometimes it totally sucks being a teen. Trying to fit in, dealing with bullies, a changing body, and the feeling that no one really gets it.

It's hard on the head and often seems like no one else understands.

That's what Becoming Fierce is all about. Those not-so-fun times that come with being a teen but also how others have gone through similar things and made it to the other side.

New and established Canadian authors share experiences from their teen years that have stuck with them.

Some of the stories are dark and heartbreaking while others are lighthearted and grin-worthy.

Regardless, they all have something in common: while things may seem like an epic fail now, they do get better. Susin Nielsen, author of the award-winning young adult novel The reluctant Journal of Henry K.

Larsen, contributes the foreword. Partial proceeds go to Kids Help Phone, chosen by Nielsen. Rated M - Mature 17 and up: May contain sexual content, intense violence and/or strong language.
