The principal at my school got fired, our English department chair lost that position, and the two teachers who assigned this book to AP English students got letters in their file ... #controversyoverload.

I tried to think of other books beyond Jane Eyre, Little House on the Prairie, Anne of Green Gables, Little Women, and The Witch of Blackbird Pond (annual treasures growing up) and came up with these three books (series):
1. All-of-a-Kind Family by Sydney Taylor
2. Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card
3. The Warrior's Apprentice by Lois McMaster Bujold
The first is from my childhood; the other two I read as an adult.

1) Jane Eyre
2) Great Expectations
Had a pocket paperback edition for 1+2 that fit into my coat and I read it whenever I had a spare moment. Even walking to school.
3) The Graveyard Book
I chose books I didn't have to read in school, because the majority of books for the genre (that were required reading) were not my cup of tea.

1. That you have no idea what can be motivating people‘s unpleasant behavior. I‘ve worked with kids whose disruptive, defiant behavior drove me crazy, but when I learned what was going on in their lives, I wondered how they had the energy to even get out of bed in the morning. 😢
2. I‘m a high-school English teacher turned librarian.
3. High-school librarian is my dream job!
