I would most definitely have this book in my classroom because it covers some very heavy topics in a realistic way.

Kat, the girl in the family who everyone turns to when things get difficult. Especially now, when her beloved younger brother Beep is in his second leukemia relapse, and a bone marrow transplant from Kat may be his only chance. She‘s worried that she may not be up to the job: She can't finish homework, she's dealing with lost friendships, not being on the soccer team, and lots of heartache from a longing crush on her old best friend.

Donald Trump not only had a hard time understanding international politics, but also had a hard time understanding war and sacrifice. At a certain point, there was just no teaching him. #thedivider #peterbaker #susanglasser #donaldtrump #war #politics #uspolitics #internationalpolitics #military #sacrifice #history #worldhistory #ushistory #politicalscience

This can be used to introduce discussions about Native American cultures, values, and the significance of storytelling in different traditions. Additionally, students can engage in creative projects, such as art or writing, inspired by the themes of sacrifice and nature in the story.

This story beautifully tells the story of a young Comanche girl who sacrifices her most prized possession to save her people. The lyrical prose and stunning illustrations capture the spirit of the Texas landscape and the significance of the bluebonnet flower. This touching tale explores themes of selflessness, tradition, and the connection to nature. It's a wonderful addition to any classroom, fostering discussions about culture and values.

This is a dark tale where a wish transforms a joyful moment of birth into tragedy. When seven brothers fail to return quickly enough with water for their baby sister's baptism, they are cursed and transformed into ravens. All hope seems lost for reversing the curse until the brave little sister embarks on a journey to find a way to save her brothers and restore them to their human form.
