Malala: My Story of Standing Up for Girls' Rights is abridged and retold for a young audience. It is honest about what happened to Malala when she was shot by the Taliban, but it does not dwell on the negative. It focuses on how Malala is a survivor and an inspiration to young people everywhere for standing up for what she believes is right. The book does not get into religious debates, either. It really focuses on how Malala is just a normal kid, dealing with normal things like sibling rivalry and exams--and how she continues to stand up for the right of girls the world over to have an education. Book Scavenger is mainly a fun adventure filled with ciphers, mysteries, and games, but it includes some potentially dangerous situations where the child protagonists do not always make the wisest choices. We will definitely address these issues head on and make sure we understand how to be safe. The City of Ember is set in the future, and things do seem bleak at first, but the whole story is one of hope for a better future. These books do deal with some big issues for big kids. I am committed to addressing hard topics because they are important. Even so, both books have an overall positive message and leave the readers with a good feeling. I have taught these books in the past with success. I promise, as always, to treat all issues and all people with respect and consideration.
