SHORT STORIES
Metamorphosis Redux
Coming-of-age happens in thousands of ways, but always includes learning a lot metamorphosing everything. To change one’s form and substance is exciting, sometimes overwhelmingly frightening, and very mind-boggling—until it snaps one into a new place.
This is a collection of three stories about children metamorphosing. The first, a ten-year-old boy loses both of his remarkable parents, and takes a train ride unconsciously looking for their replacement. The second is a horror story from a seven-year-old perspective. The third is about a remarkable ten-year-old girl who is cared for and protected, but is also left freely to be herself, who suffers betrayal, fights a human dragon, and puts puberty in its place.
