I have a problem, I don’t know me I haven’t been introduced You see. No one is perfect, and neither is the world. You’re not the only person who deals with crushing expectations and unreasonable demands. Amie Woleslagle, a teen herself, has captured a snapshot of teens who are buckling under the weight of the world, their parents, and their peers. Sixteen is a book of poetry wrestling with the outcomes of expectation. All too often it results in suicide, political unrest, anxiety, depression, abandoning religion, and questions. Collecting the voices and thoughts of teens around the world with these poems, Amie shines a light for the future while visiting lessons from the past.
