_______________________________________________Good morning,We are looking for suggestions for a whole class read for eighth grade.It's in a unit entitled Not That Different with the essential question - How does “othering” affect individuals and humanity in general? What does the way a person treats others reveal about them? In this unit, students explore the phenomenon of othering, or treating someone as if they don’t fit into the norm.Ideally, we would like a book on the shorter side. It should also be a fiction book.We are considering Starfish by Lisa Fipps.Any other suggestions?Thank youKimKim MusketSchool LibrarianJames H. Moran, Sr. Middle SchoolCurrently Reading:
