She disagreed by never forgetting how it felt to read such words. She never forgot the sting of prejudice.

A great book about women empowerment and standing up in the face of prejudice. Encouraging people standing up for themselves in ways that will help provoke change. A great book, must-have for my classroom library.

I Dissent: Ruth Bader Ginsburg Made Her Mark by Debbie Levy (nonfiction, published 2016) tells the story of one of the only women to serve as a supreme court justice. Ruth grew up facing many challenges from being a woman to being Jewish and not wanting to fit into her stereotypical role. This book explains what was stacked against her but then it shows how she would dissent and not let these things hold her back. It is very empowering.

Animal A-Z | Roger Priddy, Nicola Friggens, Louisa Cornford, Bethany Side

A creative take on an alphabet book. Showing children many different animals while providing photos and facts about them. These are less popular animals too so a larger knowledge gain.

Animal A-Z by Roger P, Nicola F, Louisa C, and Bethany S (nonfiction, published 2011) is a cool take on an alphabet book. Each letter has a page with an animal on it. There is a large, real photo of that animal along with facts about it. I think the facts may be hard for younger children to read on their own, but with an adult, they could learn a lot about many different animals. On top of that its showing them different, less-known animals

Baby Whale by Lynn Wilson (nonfiction, published 1991)is a book that uses illustrations to show the life of humpback whales. It is a good book and told in a story-like format so that the children will follow the 'storyline'. It is a good book for elementary students to learn about whales' lives and how they survive. I think I would like to have this in my classroom because it will hold interest while also teaching them.

What Comes in a Shell? by Susan Canizares and Betsey Chessen (nonfiction, published 1998) is a book for emergent readers. This book is a good example of books I would have in a kindergarten classroom nonfiction section. It isn't super in-depth but it shows different things that can all come in shells. I enjoy the simplicity for beginning readers and the use of big pictures to help show what the items are because children are visual learners.

Actual Size by Steve Jenkins (nonfiction, published 2004) is a really cool book for young, elementary grade levels. It shows the actual size of different animals, or parts of animals, in a large book. A really cool way to show the children the actual size/ scale of things. I really enjoyed this and think it is a good book to give children perspective.

“What is Hot? What is Not?” by Luana Mitten (nonfiction, published 2004) is a beginning reading/ writing book. This book would be really good for a young, preschool or kindergarten, classroom. It shows with images things that are hot & cold, saying what is hot & what is not. But it is things that the children will already know what they feel like so this will help to gain/ reinforce the concept of hot & cold.

The Water Princess by Susan Verde (biography, published 2016) is a touching story about Georgie- GiGi- Badiel‘s childhood is amazing. It is also a touching book with words and sentence structure for younger children. The story tells of the process it takes for them to get just water that they must carry long distances and still boil. A long journey each day to get a necessity for life. Touching and shows the hardships people face that we don't.

Sequoyah by James Rumford (biography, published 2004) tells the amazing story of a man creating the writing system for the Cherokee Indians. This book seems a little complicated and would be one I would do with older kids as a class book, but it is very interesting. I learned a lot reading it and think it would be something very interesting to children. The use of pictures and words written in his system help to make it even more interesting.

Jack's Path of Courage by Doreen Rappaport (biography, published 2010) tells the story of JFK's life from childhood to the presidency. This book, like Doreen's others, includes beautiful illustrations and quotes and facts to portray his life. It touches on his struggles growing up in his brother's shadows and his physical difficulties. But, it also shows how he overcame these challenges to become a loved US president.

Eleanor, Quiet No More | Doreen Rappaport

A great book about a first lady breaking social norms- being involved, an ambassador, and a civil rights activist. At this time, women were not supposed to intervene like she did and it shows her courage and how she fought sexism. She changed the course of the position of the first lady forever. Great for children to learn about overcoming challenges like sexism using direct quotes and great illustrations.

ELEANOR, Quiet No More by Doreen Rappaort (biography, published 2009) is about the life of FDR's wife, Eleanor. Growing up she found happiness in books because her mother made fun of her for enjoying reading- as it wasn't common at this time. Her intelligence and love for books led her to her future husband FDR & to teaching children to read in New York. She became the first lady and was extremely controversial because she broke the social norms.
