The day D Foster enters Neeka and her best friend’s lives, the world opens up for them. Suddenly they’re keenly aware of things beyond their block in Queens, things that are happening in the world—like the shooting of Tupac Shakur—and in search of their Big Purpose in life. When—all too soon—D’s mom swoops in to reclaim her, and Tupac dies, they are left with a sense of how quickly things can change and how even all-too-brief connections can touch deeply.
Before he was a world-renowned children's book writer, RoaldDahl was a master of short stories for adults. The thirteen talescollected here were specially selected for their appeal to teens,and they represent his finest work. By turns shocking, ironic,humorous, and touching, these stories are filled with bizarretwists and unexpected delights. This collection proves Roald Dahl'sstanding as one of the world's foremost storytellers. "A baker's dozen of barbed, witty, obliquely macabre shortstories... This sampler of Dahl's writing conveys a sense of hisversatility." --Kirkus Reviews --This text refers to an alternatePaperback edition.
