Here's my 2 cents --- I wouldn't teach A Day No Pigs Would Die to 6th
grade. I believe they are too young to understand all the concepts
presented. But then, I also believe The Giver is not a good choice for
elementary school (or middle) - so, what do I know?
A bit of library trivia - if you look at Rob's elementary title - Trigs Goes
Ape -- I am a character in that book --- Al Cuseo... Cool, eh?
