Welcome to Episode #6, part 3. Today's podcast, Civil Rights and Racial Inequality, has been split into three parts: YA titles (grades 8+), Middle Grade titles (grades 5-8), and Picture Books for Older Readers (grades 5+).


This episode is Part 3, so we are discussing picture books for older readers.


My name is Leigh Collazo, and I am a certified school librarian and former middle school English teacher. Let's talk about books!
