Pink and Say

Our Speaker for class today read us a story, as an example of a social studies lecture, Pink and Say. I remember having class members read this story in the second grade for a book report, and one of the girls crying because it was so sad. I hadn't read it myself, but I remember it was supposed to be a sad story.

Hearing it today and discovering that it was a true story absolutely brought me to tears! Oh my gosh! I need to buy this book. It’s extremely well written too. Patricia Polacco is my hero of the week.
