June’s Featured Books and Resources:
RIF has gathered 10 titles to spur on your childs’ comprehension of friendship, including all of its complexities. Flip through the pages of Taking Sides, a book that explores the difficult feelings that can surround balancing new friendships and maintaining old ones. In this book, Lincoln is in a jam when his basketball team at his new school, where the students are rich and mostly white, faces his old team from the barrio on the boards. How can he play his best against his friends? No matter who wins, it looks like it will be lose-lose for Lincoln. Supplemental resources are offered for this title and others in our Friendship book collection that are designed to aid young readers and help them fully grasp and extend learning from their reading material.
