Let s face it, life is often tough. Sometimes, it s wonderful. But it s always absolutely extraordinary. Growing Pains explores some of the challenges young people face as they navigate the often-slippery journey of growing up the funny, the serious, and the deeply heart-wrenching. Young people are many things: nervous, scared, and excited, but also brave, insightful, and strong. I hope these poems, in some way, paint a picture of these incredible young souls.

Autorenporträt
Sophie Faria has always been fascinated with words. She studied modern languages for her bachelor s degree, then Applied Linguistics, and then went on to study for a master s degree in primary teaching. She now works as a primary teacher at the Armidale Waldorf School in Armidale, NSW. She has always been fascinated with language and its ability to create opportunities, bridge divides, unlock emotions, and most importantly to define us in the most visceral sense. Sophie began writing poetry as a way of capturing thoughts, feelings and experiences, and soon found that her years teaching and observing young people and being present for the trials and tribulations that come with that age group, was a rich and boundless source of inspiration. She also has two teenage boys of her own, and so has witnessed the, often heart-wrenching, moving on from childhood, first-hand. A city girl at heart and brought up in Sydney, she now lives in regional NSW on a beef cattle farm with her husband and two teenage boys.
