Why read it?
1 author picked Teenagers as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is a book about my life—growing up in the middle of the twentieth century. Bobby Soxers, juvenile delinquents, popular music, MTV, Freedom Riders, Anti-War protestors…it’s all here, along with much more.
