pickIt‘s amazing to me that just hours after the shooting occurred, MSD students began talking about rising up and fighting back. Not against their assailant, but against a culture that normalizes active shooter drills and worse, school shootings. Cullen covers their uprising, emotions, realities, and inspiring journey. Excellent on audio too!

Riveted_Reader_Melissa I haven‘t read this one, but I‘ve read others about them/by them. They are so very impressive. 3y
mom2bugnbee Oh, mercy. Columbine wrecked me. I didn't realize that he had written this. 3y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @mom2bugnbee I‘m actually afraid to read Columbine. This was perhaps better because the student develop their activist streak so quickly. A LOT focused on that work. 3y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @Riveted_Reader_Melissa I‘ve got Columbine on my shelf, but decided on this one first. I needed some uplift to go with the tragic parts. Especially right now. 3y
mom2bugnbee @BarbaraTheBibliophage Rhank you for letting me know! My college freshman's activist activities basically started because of Parkland, so this will be a very special read for all of the wrong reasons. 😔 At least good came of it. Columbine WAS a hard read, & I would think would be especially so right now. 3y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @mom2bugnbee Oh, that‘s kind of cool that your kiddo experienced some positive activism because of Parkland. Yay! 3y
