A moving and thoughtful collection of interviews. An important and relevant item for collections in public and school libraries. Thanks Anrenee Englander...and the girls who agreed to do the interviews. Your stories will give both teens and adults courage to confront their problems. A moving and thoughtful collection of interviews. Dear Diary, I'm Pregnant is a compilation of ten interviews by Anrenee Englander after she spoke with forty young women who were faced with unplanned pregnancies and difficult choices. The author hopes that reading the stories will help other girls in similar situations realize that they are not alone, show them how others have handled the experience, and be of some help as they make the choice of abortion, adoption or parenting. The author acknowledges that each story is told from only one perspective, and that the interviewees volunteered to share their stories, so not all scenarios and outcomes are necessarily represented. The book is meant to provide support and to initiate conversations, not to endorse any specific course of action. This is a revised edition of a book first published in 1997, containing an updated resources section for both Canada and the USA, which includes names and contact information for helpful organizations, and titles of fiction and non-fiction books that deal with teen pregnancy. A moving and thoughtful collection of interviews. Thanks Anrenee Englander...and the girls who agreed to do the interviews. Your stories will give both teens and adults courage to confront their problems.
