In 2008, Black Inc. published the first in the Growing Up series, Growing Up Asian in Australia, a collection of fifty-five short memoirs and nine interviews, edited by Alice Pung. 

Featuring some of the most well-known and emerging voices in Australian writing, each book in our Growing Up series captures the diversity of our nation in moving and revelatory ways. Since that inaugural edition, we have proudly published Growing Up in Country Australia, Growing Up Aboriginal, Growing Up African, Growing Up Queer and Growing Up Disabled in Australia.
