Hi. I received this request today from a 5th grade teacher:

Can you research and recommend a fiction book with more diversity we could use for reading comprehension next year. Ideally about 100 pages and having a main character of color or diverse background. We will be reading aloud to the kids so level 40-50. 

Any suggestions?  

Thanks, 
Laura
