Read the book as a class read.

2. Have them take notes on what they notice.

3. Get into Socratic Seminar circles.

4. To start the Socratic Seminar off, take an excerpt from the book where Robin has a flashback to Korea, then show it to the class and discuss how the visuals change between the past and present. Ask them how this affects their reading experience. (note: The color scheme is more brown in the past and more bright in the present)

5. When that discussion dies off, help transition the students into discussion over what other visuals effected their reading experience and why. This will give students the opportunity to share things that their peers may not have noticed.
