Hope Nation could also work.

Not an anthology, but How Dare the Sun Rise is a short-ish memoir that students tend to gravitate to when I booktalk it.

Hi, everyone,

Teachers of our Honors Freshman English class would like some short memoirs to share with students. I've been thinking of books that are anthologies of short memoirs or books of personal essays. They want us to keep in mind that their students are young (in the high school setting anyway) but also strong readers.

Any ideas?

Thanks so much for sharing!
