    Throughout our classroom experiences, we will discover that diversity comes in many shapes and sizes. When Kids Can’t Read by Kylene Beers states, “You might need to spend some time making sure students value their differences.” This unit is designed to focus on how we can build a more tolerant community and is built to help the students understand and celebrate diversity. Carol Jago, in With Rigor for All, states, “Students need books that mirror their own experience; books that reassure them they are not the only ones to have been bullied, not the first to lose a friend.” Luna by Julie Anne Peters is an important book for students to read and needs to be told, not just to help transgendered or questioning teens, but to help those in their lives who might not know how to deal with it, even more so to give insight to those who have never and may never encounter or experience anything like it. Sexuality is a huge part of going through puberty and in most cases, it is a difficult thing to deal with. Julie Anne Peters makes this clear by showing the transition of Liam into Luna. Many children struggle with who they are, not just in terms of sexuality, and this book and unit caters to the adolescents who struggle with identity. If the purpose of literature is to share a common existence and provide a broader worldview, then this unit will help us perform that act, but this unit might also help a struggling young person find a sense of self.…

    I read it whenever I got the chance. Day and night. The story had come alive and dragged me into it. When I read, I experienced a feeling I had never felt. Everytime I read a chapter from the book, it drawed me in more. I traveled into the book and soon it became a part of me. One day it was Chapter 13 and the next it was Chapter 21. There was no stopping me as I read and read and read. I began to talk to my friends about it and they recommended other books for me to read. I finished the first book, then I read the second, “Catching Fire,” and lastly I read “Mockingjay”. This was the best book series I had ever read in all of my eleven years of being on earth. My brain began to beg me for more reading material as time grew on. Reading began to teach me new things that I hadn’t known before. As my thirst for reading grew, I felt like I was becoming smarter as well. How could a book change so much of a person in so little…

However, I now realize that anyone, regardless of age or identity should read this book owing to the fact that not only is it inspiring but thought-provoking and real to it’s audience.

    In Tuesdays with Morrie, Morrie teaches his student, Mitch, the meaning of life. He teaches him this based upon his own experiences. In the reading, Mitch recalls Morrie telling him, “So many people walk around with a meaningless life. … This is because they’re chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning” (Morrie 43). Overall, in my opinion, the big idea that Morrie is trying to teach Mitch is that the meaning of life is simply to be happy. And to do this one must live a life with love, family, and forgiveness, not worry about the material things, and never fear death.…

The protagonist Anna Fitzgerald, is only thirteen years old during the main conflict described in the book. She is posed with a harrowing decision. She has two options: Firstly, to willingly donate her kidney to her ill sister or, to fight the claim that her sister is entitled to her kidney. The author describes Anna’s life tragically. She was born in a test tube for one sole purpose; to anatomically gift her sister with healthy tissue etc. Eventually the task becomes too much. Anna ultimately comes to the…

    I walked into my vice principal’s office and sank down in the chair. She studied me and took a deep breath. “Jay, I have a favor to ask you. There is a student at the local middle school that is struggling with their gender identity and needs someone to talk to. Would you go talk to them”? I jumped at the opportunity to speak with another transgender teenager. I am a senior now, but when I came out as transgender as a high school freshmen, the world felt compressed and dark. I had no older trans role models at my school, and I was struggling to navigate the stress of high school and my identity by myself.…
