Unit 1 is all about writing your own personal narrative and navigating those everyday "growing pains." Want to see how the pros do it? The books on this page peek into the lives of characters facing similar challenges. They are fantastic examples to inspire how you write about your own experiences. Best of all, you can check out every single one of these titles right here in the Trent Library!
A quick note: Some growing pains are a bit tougher than others. I’ve marked any books on this list that deal with heavier or more sensitive topics with a red star. If you aren't sure if a book is the right fit for you, or if you are looking for a specific topic you don't see here, please reach out. My door is always open to help you find the perfect read! – Mr. Sayen
