It is pretty sad. Some of the photos are so grotesque that you can not help but stare at it. Of all the pictures, I found only one or two that can be construed as offensive. When dealing with this topic, pictures help bring their world closer to ours. I would have a picture book like this when dealing with the topic.
Students can respond to the pictures in different ways.
Also when they read about something in another book, they can look at the pictures and really see what s going on. I can hear the sun. A modern myth. Fondo, a boy living at a shelter for problem children who are homeless. Stephanie Michele, a keeper of the animals at the reserve.
