This book contained passages that I would use with middle school students, but it's not one that I would assign to an entire class.

This book was amazing! I was left with wanting more! This would be a great novel to compare and contrast to “Home of the Brave” by Katherine Applegate. I can’t wait to share this book next year with my students
