At The Crest is a humorous meditation on defining a place among your peers. It originally appeared in a collection of short stories called Street Ends No Outlet. At The Crest is a delightful coming-of-age tale that explores the complexities of fitting in with one's peers. Follow the journey of Marvin Milstead, a 5th grader growing up in the early 1970s, as he strives to shed his ordinary image and become a cool kid who hangs out at the local cinema on Friday nights. Raised by his single mother with modern values and his grandparents with more traditional ones, Marvin finds himself caught between conflicting expectations. In his quest for popularity, he contemplates ditching his younger friends who still believe in the myth of Cooties and instead, aligning himself with the tough kid at school who smokes cigarettes in the bathroom. But could there be a better way? And what about the cute new girl in class who catches his eye? Full of humor and heart, At The Crest is a charming tale that will resonate with anyone who has ever felt the pressure to fit in.
