Practical classics

I can see myself writing a book like this someday. Smokler goes back to books recommended to high school students to find and share with others the books that speak not only to teens but also to adults. He opts for shorter works (I'm pretty sure I'd do that, too) and throws in lots of contemporary books (again, something I'd probably do).

His little essays are short and encouraging and persuasive.

Good job, Kevin Smokler.
