Prominent child psychiatrist and Pulitzer Prize-winning author Robert Coles asks us to shed our preconceptions and listen to the voices of young men and women who are about to become parents. The visual essays by Lee and Moses complement Coles's subtle yet dramatic narrative of young parents whose prospects aren't very promising but whose perspectives are often surprising.
