Change Changes You

by 826 authors ages 11-14

“Middle school students at Buena Vista Horace Mann have gathered stories of mysterious figures in fog, tales of lives on medieval tea plantations, and reflections on noise and silence. Change Changes You will certainly change the reader as they encounter The Shadow, a house with a million doors, and essays on the harms of social media.”

— Simon Traub-Epstein, International Library of Young Authors

From the publisher: “This anthology is the product of a collaboration between 826 Valencia and Buena Vista Horace Mann, a bilingual K-8 school in San Francisco's Mission District. Throughout the school year, tutors, interns, and staff worked with groups of sixth, seventh, and eighth graders as they developed skills as writers. These middle school students were supported across a range of subjects and projects, including imagining what life might have been like in medieval times, responding to dystopian worlds, and writing scary stories. This anthology includes excerpts from these reflections, journal entries, essays, and Scarratives.”
