Critical Praise for Skin Deep and Other Teenage Reflections
Written as if spoken by teens, Skin Deep's poems give a thought-provoking picture of adolescent life today. Teens and adults will gain insight and enlightenment as they read silently or aloud. Here's a great opportunity for educators to motivate poets and engage teens in discussion or in acting out the poetry.
— Children's Book Review Service
The accessibility of the plain-spoken style coupled with the volume's topicality may engage those who normally avoid this genre.
— Kirkus Reviews
This is one book that will not stay long on the shelf! It is small but packed with powerful contemporary poems.
— Tri-State YA Book Review Committee
Many readers will find pieces of themselves here, and they'll be encouraged to find their own voices and write about their lives.
