@SketchesbyBoze Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was cut by the world’s great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time. On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words, and some of the words are theirs. 1/2

My daughter wanted to read Frankenstein in 6th grade because I am always saying how much I love it. She has always loved reading and challenging herself, but she was getting lost in the beginning of the story. She was ready to give up. I gave her a copy of the graphic novel, with ORIGINAL text, and she is now reading them side by side. Her confidence is regained. Why wouldn’t we have graphic adaptations in our classrooms? Why would we put up insurmountable barriers and cheat students of an amazing story? We are now discussing how our mental images differ from those in the comic - and that’s the beauty of paired texts.

The report found almost half of LGBTQ+ youth, including over half of transgender and gender expansive youth, reported feeling unsafe in at least one school setting - however - almost 9 in 10 LGBTQ+ youth reported that they usually or always feel safe in their school library.

“Fright and loss leave a residue.” Truer words, @StephenKing, truer words. Am loving Fairy Tale so much. Haven’t read a King since buying The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon for my library and taking many a middle-schooler into reading it.

BREAKING: A Virginia court just dismissed an attempt to use baseless obscenity claims to ban two books from being sold and distributed in bookstores and libraries in state.

The First Amendment is clear — disliking the contents of a book doesn’t mean the government can ban it.
