Adolescent Realities: Engaging Students in SEL through Young Adult Literature offers a connection between young adult literatures and social and emotional learning. Students have many SEL needs, and this book focuses on exploring SEL through the experiences of characters in contemporary books published in the last few years. Each chapter offers a specific focus in SEL, a middle school and high school book for teens to read, and a guided plan that can be adapted to fit the needs of educators, counselors, and parents. A great tool for guiding teen book clubs or workshops, Adolescent Realities has the potential to make teens aware of how to apply SEL in their own lives.

Judith A. Hayn retired as professor emerita in teacher education at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock after 50 years in public school and university teaching. She has published widely in the field of young adult literature. Holly Sheppard Riesco has been an ELA teacher for 15 years and is currently working on her PhD at the University of Arkansas.
