As BART's future looks unsteady, read opinion pieces from these elementary schoolers about what the transit group can do to fix it. Think cafeterias in every station and beds on every train. To really tax your brain, try solving a few riddles. What's red like fire and tastes like tomatoes?

— Simon Traub-Epstein, International Library of Young Authors

From the Publisher: “This is the FIRST book ever published by SANCHEZ ELEMENTARY students in partnership with 826 Valencia. Throughout the school year, tutors work with third, fourth, and fifth graders to write 'All About Me' poems, tell tales of temperamental monsters, write opinion pieces about how to upgrade BART, and craft sensational food riddles. These pieces are straight from the imaginations and hearts of our young writers!”
