A peer dies, a divorce happens, or a child finds out that they were adopted. How will you react? What books will you pull off of your classroom library shelf? Can you use it as a teachable moment and if so, do you have the right activities and lesson extensions prepared? Teaching with Books that Heal is a powerful resource for teaching difficult subjects to children. As a former Assistant Principal at a school for children with emotional and behavioral needs, I would have loved to have had this on hand for my teachers grappling with students’ complicated issues that arise in the classroom. Get this book so that you can be prepared to meet your students’ needs.
