@sarateacher27 @JasonReynolds83 @kwamealexander Oh and Grace Lin rocks!

[Laura Zarsky @Librarianista]

We also do a disservice if we insert our own opinions and influence our students to think the way we do... how can we get kids to see facts so they can think for themselves? Getting kids to think for themselves and respecting their views - that is our job.

[sarateacher27 @sarateacher27]

“Schools do students a disservice when they fail to teach them the messy truth...The world got to be this way because people made it so—and when educators don’t communicate that to young people, they limit students’ ability to imagine something better.” https://t.co/TlBHWL25ad

@sarateacher27 Love @JasonReynolds83 LongWay Down, Ghost, anything he writes. Other Books: The Hate You Give, Ghost Boys, Watson’s Go To Birmingham. @kwamealexander is excellent too. Yes there are too many to name. Oh...Jacqueline Woodson! Off the top of my head.
