Take a look at what teachers like you are saying:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This was a great accompaniment to the curriculum for my students. It was nice to switch things up and cover a story in a different way than I usually do. It also gave me some great ideas for the future! (Jennifer W.)
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐This is usually one of the first short stories we cover because it is not intimidating like most freshman pieces are. I knew the kids needed to work on multiple skills after being out of the classroom for so long. This fit the bill perfectly. Very pleased with the results. (Theresa S .)
