Honestly, I did not read this cover-to-cover because it is not meant to be - especially if you aren't reading every "anchor" text that is mentioned per topic. HOWEVER, that doesn't mean it isn't a useful book. I think it does a great job of providing various social justice topics and activities. I particularly like that it has before, during, and after reading ideas. I don't think I would use this for whole-class texts, but it is a useful tool to add to my already existing book clubs with additional title recommendations for each topic.
