This book was published in 2022 and this is a story of five different students who are forced to work on community service together. These students were not popular in school and don't share a lot in common with each other. This is a good story to introduce students to each other. It encourages students to be different and talk to people they may not usually talk to.
pickI thought this was an amazing and inspiring story of people who may not have a lot in common. They ended up working together and became great friends.
pickA good representation of how labels are harmful and you are never too young to make a positive impact on a person, family, and the community you call home.
“Sometimes, it feels like i‘m invisible. Like no one sees me at all.”
i think this book would be amazing in the classroom because of its importance of celebrating diversity and others voices and experiences
pickthis book does a great job of introducing themes of belonging, ones identity and shares the story of a girl named Marisol and her journey of being an immigrant.
Fall is almost here! 🍁 But we‘ve still got a little summer left here in OK. Excited for cooler temps and football, but not for darker evenings. 🌅 Less time for reading outdoors after work makes me sad, but it‘s a trade off for less sweating and less mosquitos & flies. This was a Litsy pick a few months back from @ravenlee and I‘ve been meaning to pick it up from the library since then. Excited to start it tonight!
pickGreat MG GN! There‘s a Breakfast Club vibe, but it‘s so much better. Five Latinx kids are called to the principal‘s office to explain what happened; then we get the story from their different perspectives in overlapping flashbacks. I LOVE the bilingual presentation (when a character speaks in Spanish there‘s a “thought bubble” translation), which lets you read either or both languages throughout. Lots of good representation of cultures.
pickRead this yesterday in one sitting. A definite 5⭐️read! Loved the characters, the storyline, and the artwork.

pick4 ⭐ This book was a treat to read. Five kids are called to the principal‘s office to be interrogated. They had to wait for an interpreter because not all the kids speak English. There was apparently an incident and the principle wanted to get to the bottom of it. All these kids think they are in trouble but shouldn‘t be. We hear the story from each of them in turn until the end. This book shows the casual racism that can be apparent in school.
pickInvisible Latino kids become community heroes in this middle-grade graphic novel. Spanish and English utilized throughout.
More #middlegrademarch fun with graphic novels. Tagged book unique for emergent bilingual students. Read other books in the Libenson series, and they deliver hopeful coming of age messages in an easy to read format. @megnews
My scholar said she could relate to the title because the world makes her feel as if she‘s…invisible. She also told me I‘m the best teacher she‘s ever had and I‘m an emotional wreck! Bonding over books is special beyond measure.
