Another aspect of the book that I enjoyed was the explanations of the generational practices of social media. It provided details on how Generation Z and younger view and practice their time on social media, offering specific vocabulary to boot. I think that if the administration and school board had access to this information as the fallout from the account unfolded, it would have made for a less muddy and confusing process.
Throughout the sit-in segment of the work, I couldn't help but imagine what it must have been like for the teachers. They practically had no direction from the admin and had to make decisions that felt right in the moment. If I were in this situation, I think I'd react similarly to the art teacher, torn between the students' right to protest and the cause they were advocating for, as well as the safety of all students involved.
pickI will say that I practically zoomed through this book! Although nonfiction is not my favorite genre of book, I appreciated that the chapters were short and flitted between multiple perspectives. These aspects made it incredibly engaging to read. Furthermore, students who may have difficulty reading nonfiction texts will likely find this reading easier to comprehend.

pickIncredible artwork. This is a true story of how a house got moved 4 miles. There is silver mining, pigs and lots of logs to be found. Loved the story and the quirky characters.
Today, as I stand in my utopia, I have what any person could wish for—a life and the love of my son.
Stephen and I are a family.
