For example, if it shows a young character learning about love, loss, or friendship. Also, the way the character changes from the beginning to the end is important. If they become more self - aware or mature, it's a sign. For short short stories, look for a concise yet impactful exploration of these elements.

Some short coming of age stories only show one side of the coming - of - age experience, like only focusing on the positive aspects of growing up or only the negative. This doesn't give a full and realistic view. Also, the dialogue can be stilted. In an attempt to convey the message quickly, the conversations between characters might not feel natural, lacking the nuances and hesitations that real - life conversations have.
