Where does the ability to be strong come from? The authors featured in the anthology The Struggle to Be Strong don't have all the answers, but they've been there and they've learned what it takes--RESILIENCE. The experiences that these young urban writers share cover a wide variety of hardships and difficulties faced by teens everywhere-from self-esteem and relationship issues to coming to terms with the adults who have failed them.

THE STRUGGLE TO BE STRONG places these hard-hitting-but-moving stories into an easy-to-understand framework stressing the 7 resiliencies and their crucial importance to all teens.

Adolescence is a time of change-and with change comes challenge. Some challenging situations are simply embarrassing (like not knowing how to cook); others involve taking a risk (learning to flirt or deciding to come out about being gay). What matters most is the struggle. How a teen gets through a tough situation by gathering the inner strength necessary to remain positive, learn from it, and move on is the difference between being a resilient teen and becoming just another statistic. THE STRUGGLE TO BE STRONG proves that resilent teens can get through difficult times and be ready for the next challenge.
