Each child goes around and shares what adventures they went on throughout the summer. As each child went, Angelina grew more anxious as to how her friends would feel like an outcast for staying home with her sister. When it came time for her turn, Angelina realized that she enjoyed staying at home reading books and telling stories because it felt like she traveled to many places. After she was finished, Angelina started making connections with her classmates. She learned that by sharing her experience, she was able to find others who can relate to her.

Reshma Saujani delivers a TedTalk about how we are to teach girls how to be brave in school instead of being perfect. I thought this video fit with the book being discussed because Angelina was brave enough to share her story with her classmates even though she was worried they would view her as an outcast. We need to encourage girls to go outside their comfort zone and take risks instead of striving solely for things they know they will succeed in.

I believe The Day You Begin meets the criteria. The bright designs, illustrated by Rafael Lopez, that each page has helped to capture children’s attention. This book was written to demonstrate breaking down stereotypical barriers between students in order to build a better community. They deliver the message that we can feel like outsiders sometimes and that being confident enough to speak up can help others.

Woodson uses lyrical text to show that fear is normal in every new situation, but it is important to be confident and share your story. Teachers can use this book to promote diversity and inclusion among their students within the classroom.
