We've heard some terrific examples of literture being used to create community in different ways, in hospitals and schools and classrooms. Please continue to share your stories.
Because community is such a rich theme in children's and young adult literature, I'm wondering if anyone has used books about community to explore that very theme with children and teeange readers in an intentional way? It seems the issue of school as community-for better and for worse--is one that could be, or perhaps has been, particularly worthy of exploration. Has anyone done this?
