[CASL-L] OSOB

[Allison Loiseau]

Good morning,
We have a lovely new principal at Mitchell Elementary School in Woodbury.
She is an eager supporter of literacy and she wants to do a One School, One
Book program for our K-5 school.  Be still my LMS heart!  I am so excited!
I am struggling to find the right title for our school.  Our community is a
bit resistant to pushing boundaries, so I want to make the first selection
as minimally controversial as possible. That being said, I would prefer to
select something by an author from an underrepresented group if possible.
My principal would prefer a chapter book to extend the duration of the
program. I am considering *A Boy Called Bat *or one of the *Humphrey*
books.  We were hoping to get it rolling this fall and I want to be sure
the title is appropriate for all levels. Every book I read that I think may
be a good fit seems a bit high for K or juvenile for 5.  Any suggestions?
I appreciate any feedback or insight.  Thanks in advance and enjoy your
remaining summer.

With gratitude,
Allison Loiseau
