I Will Always Write Back by Martin Ganda and Caitlin Alifirenka

I recently substituted for a 7th grade class, and they were reading this book. It was so interesting. It’s about a girl who starts a penpal friendship. She later helps him come to the United States.

Through My Eyes by Ruby Bridges

Another book I got to read and lead a discussion on while substituting. It was very interesting and eye opening.
