A teacher here at Derby High School donated this 196 page book to the library this year; it certainly is timely although maybe cuts a little close:
“Chain Reaction: A Call to Compassionate Revolution” by Darrell Scott was written in 2001 by the father of a student who was killed during the Columbine school
shooting of 1999.
From the cover/blurb: “Rachel Scott, Columbine victim, believed she could change the world one person at a time ; she believed that she could make a difference.
She targeted three groups of young people at Columbine High School: the handicapped, those picked on by others, and those new to her school. Her weapons of choice were honesty, compassion, and kindness. Rachel’s death amplified her deeds and started a ripple
effect that has been felt around the world.”

Subject: [CASL-L] summer reading request
Hello,
I am looking for a non-fiction book for summer reading that would be good for an entire high school.
It has to be 200 pages or less. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
