For Readers Dozen this month, we’re challenging you to read a coming-of-age story (you probably read a few of these in high school!). These types of stories focus on the psychological, mental, and emotional development of main characters as they become adults. They are often more “interior,” taking place in the mind, and usually feature some sort of tough obstacle to overcome or defining experience.
For ideas, check the links below. Don’t forget to complete the RD form when you’re finished (and before March 7).
