Girl Coming in for a Landing

GIRL COMING IN FOR A LANDING
A Novel in Poems
by April Halprin Wayland,
illustrated with amazing collages by my wonderful illustrator and friend,
Elaine Clayton
(Knopf)

I love what my editor at Knopf, Michelle Frey, wrote for the jacket copy of this book:

One Girl. One School year. All poems. From friends to first dates, school dances to family fights, this inspiring book captures the highs and lows of teen life with refreshing honesty and humor. Funny, poignant, and completely real, Girl Coming In For A Landing is just like high school: impossible to walk away from unchanged.

Bobbie R. Johnson has created a terrific Reader’s Guide for Girl Coming in for a Landing.
