We are overjoyed to announce our two latest student publications! We Turned Back to See Where We Came From is a professionally-bound, full-color collection of original photography and writing that is the fruit of an eight-month partnership between 826 Boston and the students of Greater Egleston High School . Read excerpts from We Turned Back here and here.
Small Things Can Grow Tall is an engrossing series of autobiographical vignettes by Michelle Boyle's 11th graders of The English High School. We recommend Small Things, which was inspired by Sherman Alexie's essay "Indian Education," to fans of pithy, hilarious memoir. Sherman Alexie, who wrote the foreword for the book, says, "these stories by the young writers from 826 Boston feel like miracles..." To whet your appetite, read the foreword or an excerpt.
Both books are now available for purchase at 826 Boston and in our online store!
