Suddenly they go from striving for A’s to barely passing, from
fretting about cooties to obsessing for hours about crushes. Former
chatterboxes answer in monosyllables; freethinkers mimic everything
from clothes to opinions. Their bodies and psyches morph through
the most radical changes since infancy. They are kids in the
middle-school years, the age every adult remembers well enough to
dread.
Here at last is an up-to-date anthropology of this critically
formative period. Prize-winning education reporter Linda Perlstein
spent a year immersed in the lunchroom, classrooms, hearts, and
minds of a group of suburban Maryland middle schoolers and emerged
with this pathbreaking account. Perlstein reveals what’s really
going on under kids’ don’t-touch-me facade while they grapple with
schoolwork, puberty, romance, and identity. A must-read for parents
and educators, Not Much Just Chillin’ offers a trail map to the
baffling no-man’s-land between child and teen.
