I love historical fiction and am glad to find such a great read in the YA section! Reading through this novel I was hanging on every word wondering about this girl in the blue coat and how she disappeared.

My family met some friends at a local art center to watch this Academy Award winning documentary film. No words to describe the resilience & ongoing protests of the Palestinian people living for centuries in the West Bank.

We are starting Night today in the 10th grade.One of the students‘ tasks is to explain what they think the quotes on this Preface Work paper, as well as chose their own quote.
