Open Mic: Riffs on Life Between Cultures in Ten Voices
“Will leave readers thinking about the ways that humor can be a survival tool in a world that tends to put people in boxes.†— Publishers Weekly
Listen in as ten YA authors—some familiar, some new—use their own brands of humor to share stories about growing up between cultures. Edited by acclaimed author and speaker Mitali Perkins, this collection of fiction and nonfiction uses a mix of styles as diverse as their authors, from laugh-out-loud funny to wry, ironic, or poignant, in prose, poetry, and comic form.
With stories by: Cherry Cheva Varian Johnson G. Neri Naomi Shihab Nye Mitali Perkins Olugbemisola Rhuday-Perkovich Debbie Rigaud Francisco X. Stork Gene Luen Yang David Yoo
