Our book guides are created and vetted by in-the-field educators. They hold true to the tenets of giving students choice and voice in their reading lives, while empowering a teacher to expand the representation of books shared with students.

What a book guide is NOT

• A book guide is not a packet of activities designed for cute and identical responses to a book.
• It is not created by people outside of the classroom to keep students inside of a classroom busy and silent.
• It is not a canned prompt with single correct answers.
