middle-school-age-miracles-time-kids-three-inches-summer-breasts-nothing-voices

This was middle school, the age of miracles, the time when kids shot up three inches over the summer, when breasts bloomed from nothing, when voices dipped and dove.

Spotty skin could be chemically cleared. Some girls were turning beautiful. A few boys were growing tall.
