5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific Resource for Great YA Literature, February 2, 2008
I discovered this book when I was coordinating a middle school book group with at-risk kids, primarily African American kids. I was looking for great books that would appeal to the kids, characters and stories they could relate to, outside of the norm. The Coretta Scott King Award List is a wonderful source of young adult literature. This book is the only one of its kind that I could find that offered lesson plans and reading guides, all kinds of enrichment materials, based on CSK Award Winners. My only complaint is that it was published in 2000 and has not been updated! ;-(
