Revive Your Mind presents a collection of meditations upon many of the plagues of modern society. Written in a clear and forthcoming tone, author Ernestine Rice creates a direct dialogue with her readers and uses poetry to share her strong views. Unwanted Touches warns parents to remain alert to their childrens behavior and to educate them to the dangers of molestation. Why So Young? decries the results of increased violence and the activities of young men in street gangs, for both them and their families. In these poems and others, Ernestine alerts her readers to the ills of our society in a way that both frightens and inspires.
