    About this ebook

    MG Press partnered with 826michigan for this exciting project with a simple goal: gain new perspectives on history through the eyes of the eighth graders at Scarlett Middle School. Why? Recording history not only serves as our collective memory, but the changing perspectives of our understanding of history and how we make sense of our experiences in the here and now. The students, in the midst of learning about historical fiction and its significance, wrote about times before they were born, all the way up to recent memory, exploring a new vantage on world events, things close to home, and even just the everyday.
