What educators are saying

This novel is amazing and these activities are so much fun! The bell-ringers were really awesome and the students really took the opportunity to share personal aspects of their lives here.
I first read this book because of a post on your Instragram account. The activities that you have included in this resource are amazing! Thank you so much!
