When The Kids of Degrassi Street debuted in 1981, it was definitely teen television with a difference. Fans recognized themselves in the series’ true-to-life storylines that captured the way kids really live. And legions of teens followed the Degrassi characters through Degrassi Junior High and Degrassi High. Degrassi wasn't afraid to tackle big issues such as AIDS, suicide and teen pregnancy. But it also offered glamour-free depictions of the daily mortifications of teenage existence — shopping for your first bra or being the shortest guy in grade nine. Degrassi: Generations is the first, the only, the complete — and the official! — illustrated history of Degrassi. This full-color volume has never-before-seen photos, facts about the actors, quotes, interviews, reminiscences and more. It's a must-have for every Degrassi fan!
KATHRYN ELLIS is a long-time Degrassi insider. She was the publicist for the first three series, and wrote five of the scripts and two Degrassi novels.
KEVIN SMITH is a writer, director and actor whose credits include the films Dogma, Chasing Amy, Clerks and Clerks II.
