Thank you @thecreativecompany.bsky.social! My MG students are going to love these nonfiction titles!

Info-rich without being too in-depth for MS, & featuring images & asides to keep all readers engaged.

(& v. happy how school-friendly the Nicki Minaj book is!)

With sparse text & rich vocabulary, this book reads like a poem to amplify an important message about humanity. The accordion-fold makes it extra fun & the intricate illustrations feature something new to notice with each read.
