“Sometimes, I feel discriminated against, but it does not make me angry. It merely astonishes me. How can any deny themselves the pleasure of my company? It’s beyond me.”
― Zora Neale Hurston
Island, By Armin Greder
What a wonderfully, depressing book! But so much to talk about. When we select short books to read aloud, it is with the purpose of discussing how the world work; how human beings treat each other; how we treat each other. This books, along with its haunting illustration was a perfect way to end our Thursday afternoon.
Very nice work with padlet 6B! We must try this out in 6A- possibly next week for our unit reflections.
