For the fifth edition of the Young Authors' Book Project, 826DC hosted a series of writing workshops at Woodrow Wilson High School, Duke Ellington School for the Arts, and Ballou High School. The Weight of the Day Surrounds My Body is the culmination of this project and features selections of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry written by the young authors throughout the 2012-2013 school year.

From a revenge-seeking hamster and a wistful Eiffel Tower to the teens' real experiences with loss and sense of place, this shining collection is a deep dive into young minds and will both delight and change you.
