Foreword
The process of growing up, of passing through the age of adolescence has, through the ages, been marked by great inner turmoil, uncertainty, and tremendous pressures from family and peer group alike. Certainly, in our society today, the problems of youth appear to be mere marked than ever before.
We hear constant reports of the pervasive use of drugs in our schools. Of shoplifting and other petty -- and not so petty -- crimes. Of promiscuity and dangerous VD epidemics.
Tracey Lawton is a teenager, embarking on her own special journey into adolescence. She finds herself plagued by her powerful emotions, sometimes feeling guilty about her awakening sexuality, sometimes getting angry over imagined slights and youthful misjudgments.
THE COUSINS EAT OUT -- the story of one average young American girl's coming of age. A lesson to us all. A reminder, once again, that growing up is not easy.
