High school graduation is often thought of as a celebration. As it should be, of course- it is quite an accomplishment for many students to finish high school. But when we focus solely on the celebratory aspects of this milestone, we often don't leave space to discuss the grief that comes with leaving a familiar place with consistency of schedules, expectations, and friends. Going to college brings many adventures but also brings space between relationships and changes in routine, finances and expectations that can trigger intense feelings of grief. Show Them You're Good, Mr. Hobbs' latest book, highlights the struggles of several high school boys as they navigate through the college application process, along with high school and family struggles. 

Jeff Hobbs grew up in Kennett Square, PA. He is the author of The Tourists, a national bestseller, and The Short and Tragic Life of Robert Peace, a New York Times bestseller, notable book of the year, and winner of the LA Times Book Prize. Show Them You're Good is his second work of nonfiction. He lives in Los Angeles with his wife and two children. His books can be found on Amazon, or by supporting your local book store.
