| The Other Side
I used this picture book to teach symbolism to my middle school students. My students connected Woodson's fence to Jerry Spinelli's Hector Street in our class novel, Maniac Magee. After an engaging reading,they concluded that both the fence and Hector Street represent that which divides us: ignorance. Picture books, especially The Other Side,are excellent tools for teaching literary elements. Most importantly, students of all ages enjoy them. |

| I was required to read this book in my high school psych class, as well as the sequel to it. It was a very captivating read, and the imagery really sticks with you. The teacher gave us a schedule of when we had to finish each chapter by, but I couldn't put the thing down. |

| Tessa is a cancer patient, whom the doctors could no longer find a cure. Before she breathe her last, she wrote up a list of things to do (eg. sex, break the law, drugs etc).
The novel was written with a fluent flow, completely in a teenager's perspective. I finished it in a couple of hours, crying straight in the last 3 hours. So prepare loads of tissues, ladies |
