For The Right To Learn: Malala Yousafzai's Story

# data[].attributes.body
This book is an amazing read for young students and also educates them about education in other parts of the world. I feel like a lot of young minds don't understand that not a lot of other places offer free education and some places only allow boys to go to school. Malala's story is so powerful, I would love to have this book in my classroom. This book describes Malala's story and her bravery in fighting for not only her education but for other young girls. It highlights her experiences with the Taliban and the struggles that she had to face and still faces today.

Beautiful, Wonderful, Strong Little Me! is a book that I recommend. I read this for my author's study on Hannah Carmona. This story is about a girl named Lilly. Lilly doesn’t look like most of her friends and they often ask her so much about “what” she is. She feels pressure by this but then remembers that it does not matter what you look like it matters who you are. I think this is a very positive story and can be very empowering for all students but mainly for students of color.

A book that I would highly recommend to others would be "Forever Cousins." Why I would recommend this book is because I think students would really enjoy it and I think the message in the book is probably really common for students to relate to. It is about a young girl and her cousin who moved away. they were so worried that they wouldn't stay friends but soon realized that time and distance wouldn't keep them apart. Moving is a common thing so introducing this book when big changes arise especially for young kids could hold a lot of power.

One title I highly recommend is Love is Powerful. I think this book is very empowering and is a great read for younger students. I loved the theme of it and how it teaches the importance of activism. This would be a great book for students in kinder-4th grade.

This book is a new entry to my library, but definitely one of my new favorites. It's a children's book, so perfect for the kindergarten through 2nd-grade level. It tells the story of a young girl Mari who speaks her word in a women's march and realizes how important her opinion is. She chants "Love is Powerful" and everyone in the march chants along with her.

A book I greatly recommend is Seven Little Mice Go to School by Haruo Yamashita. This is a great book that can help students overcome fears and know the importance of friendship and family.

The book I recommend is "Class Picture" by Noe Carlain This book I feel is so perfect for the classroom and how accurate class picture days can be and how each classroom can be. The age range for this book is 4-8 years old.

I would highly recommend this book to everybody.  It is an awesome picture book/biography on Les Paul and how he invented the solid-body electric guitar.  This book is interesting for all age ranges and also is a very inspiring book for everybody.

This book is about Covid-19 and when everyone went into lockdown. I think that it makes some good points and is very relatable to everyone since many people were living very similar lives during this time. Maybe feeling lonely, having to work a ton being a first responder, or not being able to work at all or go to school. It made me think back to my life back in March 2020 and I think it could teach students as well what life was like three years ago when it all started as well. Grade Level: K-1

# data[].attributes.body
The book I would highly recommend including in a library is Jack (Not Jackie). This book helps students walk through any emotions they may be feeling regarding someone they know going through a gender transition. I think including books like this in the library helps all students feelings to be heard and process their emotions.

One story that I would highly recommend is You Matter by Christian Robinson. The plot of this book takes place all over the place, and represents that no matter where you are throughout life, what you are doing, or who you are that you matter regardless. I think that this is a great book to have inside any classroom library because this has an important message for students and everyone who would read this story.

I think that this book is a great rendition of a story that most people and children have probably heard. I think that it would be fun to read the original Humpty Dumpty story and then read this story with a classroom and have children pick apart the differences. I really enjoyed the way that the author ties in the importance of mental health into this story.

This books reading level is 3rd-7th. I chose this book because it's about a. refugee starting school in the United States and the hardships she faces along with being a refugee. I think its important for teachers as well as students to understand the importance of respect and kindness, especially to students who are new to the country and classroom.

Grade level: Pre-kindergarten-1st grade

I would really recommend this book for young students. It shows the journey of a group of animals looking to save the drought. A lot of the animals give up or encourage others to give up while the Gecko encourages others to continue to try.

Even though I have a lot of favorites within my classroom library, one book that I would share to anyone is last stop on market street. This book is perfect for young grade levels within elementary school and has a beautiful message behind it. This book not only shows diversity, but it also shows inclusion and making room for everyone. There is a bus that is making the journey to a beach, but the driver will stop for everyone they see and offer them a ride. No matter what they are bringing with them and no matter how who they are, this bus always has room for them. I think this book is so important for young kids to read and get exposure too, because it welcomes the idea of inclusion to one and all.

I highly recommend the book Another by Christian Robinson. I think this book portrays a great message that is great to read to young students because it emphasizes on the idea of always being open to new experiences, worlds and people. Being open to all is a great message for young students to understand as they grow up and this book creates such a awesome message in a fun and creative way!

One book that I highly recommend is School's first Day of School. This book puts a twist on the first day of school jitters by telling the story from the school's perspective. I really like this book because it is relatable for all students. It will teach students about emotions in an engaging, fun way.

I loved this book because it touches on the nerves and anxiety that the first day of school can bring, but from a different perspective that allows the nerves and anxieties of the students to feel validated. This book is so real and shares such real and authentic emotions that are felt so strongly by each and every student before the first day.

I highly recommend the book "No Buddy Like a Book" by Allan Wolf for grade levels Pre-K to 2nd grade. This book poetically describes all of the ways books benefit our lives. From facts to morals to the growth of our imaginations, books give us meaning. We, as humans and students, give books just as much meaning as they tell us. I love how this book explicitly shows young readers why they should read. "Why" is such an important question to ask as students, and just as important of an answer to give as teachers.

The book that I would highly recommend to my classmates is "The Thing About Jellyfish" by Ali Benjamin. This is a beautiful novel filled with adventure. It's a great book to add to your classroom library because it teaches children about guilt and grief. Grade Level 5 and up.

# data[].attributes.body
A book that I recommend is Anita and the Dragons. The thing that really stuck out to me about this book was the illustrations. This story is about Anita leaving her home and moving to a different place. I just loved the writing in this book and I think kids would really connect with it as well.

# data[].attributes.body
A book I would highly recommend would be, "Room for everyone." I really liked this book because of the possible activities that could go along with it. The inclusiveness in the book, and welcoming everyone into the van I loved. I would love to have students create almost their own version of the book, and think of a time where they helped their community, or welcomed in others around them.

One book that I highly recommend is Wonder. I think that this is a great book to show students that  some people are different than them. It also very clearly outlines how to treat people and how not to treat people. Another thing that I really like os that the main character is around the same age as the intended reader, so it makes it a little bit more relatable. It is intended for students from 5th to 7th grade.

The Leak written by Kate Reed Petty and illustrated by Andrea Bell is a book that I would like to recommend to my peers because I believe that it has a storyline that is very different than most. This book focuses on corruption, pollution, and the freedom of press. The storyline follows a little girl named Ruth on her journey to solve the mystery of what is in the water in her small town. Through the power of her blog she is able to spread awareness of what a big corporation is doing that is polluting her town and she is able to put a stop to it, despite all of the people that doubted her and told her she was wrong. This book is recommended for the ages 8-12.

I highly recommend this book to my peers because I don't believe everyone knows the real story of the three little pigs. After reading this for the first time, I was completely shocked to find out that the wolf wasn't bad. The pigs made everyone think that about him, but part of him had a kind heart and he just wanted to borrow some sugar. This book would start at a kindergarten level I believe. There are several pictures and is very entertaining for a younger audience.

A title I highly recommend is The True Story of the 3 Little Pigs by Jon Scieszka. This story is showing the other side of the 3 little pigs' storyline, from the point of view of the Big Bad Wolf. He goes on talking about what happened on his end of the story and what "really happened" and how he needed a cup of sugar and was sick. This story is recommended for ages 5-11.

I recommend the book Starfish by Lisa Fipps for you all to read! This book has such a strong message of experiences with body image and positivity. I feel like this is a common struggle that many do not talk about and this book does talk about it. It takes the readers alongside the main character Ellie who is a teenage girl that struggles with body image. As the readers, we feel her emotion and how she is learning to get better with body positivity. This book also covers bullying and how one word can truly affect someone because we never know what someone is going through.  The grade level for this book is 5th grade and up.

The one novel on my padlet that I highly recommend to my classmates is Starfish. I believe this verse novel is so important and should be in peoples libraries. It sends a message that a lot of people aren't willing to talk about. However, I believe it is such a good message for young minds to read about.

A book that I highly recommend to read is the book "Starfish" by Lisa Fipps. Starfish is targeted for the ages 16 and up. I thought that this book conveyed a really great message and brought the attention to bullying which is a prevalent topic that I think a lot of students could relate to.

The book I would suggest is Vamos Let's Cross the Bridge. This book contains half English and half Spanish. This is a great way for students to get exposed to a little bit of Spanish without even realizing it.

# data[].attributes.body
One book that I really recommend is "The Proudest Blue" by Author: Ibtihaj Muhammad, S.K. Ali. The book is a great tool for introducing inclusivity into a classroom. This may be a students first exposure to people/ children who wear hijabs. Grade level could be pre-school to 5th grade.

# data[].attributes.body
The reason why is because I felt like this book was just such a heart warming story about a girl who went through the Holocaust yet her dog waited for her. It shows the connections that humans have with their animals, and how important it is to try to think of the good even during really hard and horrible times in your life. I think that this story can not only teach students about what it was like to live during the Holocaust but also how there can be good sometimes even when you think everything has gone bad in the world. The grade level for this book is 1st-2nd grade.

Burying the Moon really pulled at my heartstrings because of how common the reality of treatment of women really is around the world. I cannot imagine what these women are truly going through and the troubles they are facing. There are no toilets in the town, which leaves women having to wait until nighttime to go to the bathroom in a field. I feel as if having a restroom, let alone even just a toilet is something that we take for granted. It is never something that I think twice about until reading this book. It is bringing awareness to the world that we live in and the world that others are living in.

Be Your Own Best Friend Forever is one book I highly recommend. I think it is so important to love yourself, and love spending time with yourself. If you are truly content with yourself and being your own friend, you will be content regardless of who is in your life. It's important to teacher kids the importance of friendship and community but its equally important to teach kids to be their own friend.

The book that I recommend for everyone to read is the story titled "Be Your Own Best Friend Forever." I truly loved reading this book, and I loved the message behind it as well. It is so easy to say negative things about ourselves, but really being able to love yourself for who you are takes a process sometimes. This book is a great one that I hope to include in my classroom library because I want my students to all learn to love themselves even if they are different from the other students.

I believe it is so important for kids to learn to love themselves no matter what the outside world may say. Self-confidence is so important for all ages but especially when kids are starting in school and may be faced with negative outside opinions and bullies. Having books like this in a classroom library encourage students to be kind to their peers and develop a classroom community.

I would recommend this book to my classmates.  it is a book about three brothers who are struggling during the HIV/Aids crisis and the initial shock during this epidemic.  This boom brings up some really tough topics and it is a book that we can all learn something from.  I recommend this book to everybody.

Frizzy is a book that I highly recommend for everyones classroom library. It is a book that is recommended for the grade levels of 3rd grade to 7th grade. This book creates an amazing message to anyone, to not be afraid to embrace who you really are. You do not have to change to try and fit in, but instead you can be yourself. In Frizzy, the main character Marlene was trying to change her hair to try to match other girls that had straight hair, but in the end she discovered herself by embracing her natural hair with confidence. This allowed her to show off her natural beauty that she gained from her culture. Overall, I love this book because it portrays a message of diversity to all the young readers. Showing them to embrace their own culture and who they are as an individual and not try to change yourself just to try to fit into the "standards" of what everyone else might look like.

I recommend that this book this added to my peers' libraries because it raises awareness of the need for a genuine and supportive community within the classroom. This book covered a very modern-day theme of inclusivity. I loved the lightness of it, as it was easy to connect to and made it a nice introduction to young ones on the topic of being yourself and finding friends who don't judge. I also enjoyed how it showed a classroom community supporting a student who felt left out. I would love to have this book in my future classroom and I recommend it for others to include in their personal library as well.

The One and Only Ivan is a story that I highly recommend to others to read. This story tells, from the gorilla's standpoint, of life in the circus mall, being gawked at by tourists, and how it all seems so normal. But the arrival of a baby elephant starts to trigger memories, and before long Ivan finds himself making promises he's not sure how he's going to keep. it is recommended for grades 5-8.
