Review 30: Chappaqua by Robert D. Toonkel

Review 30: Chappaqua by Robert D. Toonkel

By Shannon Yarbrough on August 22, 2008

DeGrassi Junior High, DeGrassi High, Saved by the Bell, 90210, Dawson’s Creek…the list goes on and on of irresistible melodramas which have sought to capture the essence of teen life through the years, often with a high school setting since those four years of a teenager’s life can certainly be ever changing. I know mine were. These days, our brains can’t fathom these made up tales and we wanted to hear from real people, people like us, so we handed kids a camera and told them to go film their “real” stories.
