A wonderful collection of short stories by notable children's book authors (though I have to admit that I am unfamiliar with all of the authors featured in this volume). In the course of reading this book I laugh, cried, and empathized with these writers. Truly the best two hours of reading I've had in a long time. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

The award-winning companion to Volume One of WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE--now in paperback "Tell me a story of when you were little," children everywhere love to ask. In this acclaimed collection, ten award-winning, well-known writers comply by reaching across their own childhoods to those of their readers. Whether telling of growing up in Japan or upstate New York or the California coast, recalling The Great Depression or World War II or the 1950s, describing children's victories or heartaches, the writers of these stories make it clear that despite the difference between one childhood and another, all children share a complex humanity and a deep capacity for joy.

Although, I have never read anything from these authors, I feel now that they each have let me into their lives, I know them.
I will definitely be looking fro book from these brilliant writers.
There is not one story that stands out for me, but there is not one story that I didn't love.
All ten, told us a story from what they remembered it to be like. Told it with their heart and told it bluntly. Reading these brought some of my own memories to the surface.
An excellent read. ( )
