Dear LM_NET,
   
  In the school where I am currently doing my internship (7th and 8th 
grades), the library media specialist did a lesson with Pink and Say by 
Patricia Polacco.  It takes place during The Civil War.  The story is 
based on real people whose story has been passed down through the 
generations.  The students, who had the book read to them, were really 
engrossed and it tied in to what they were learning about The Civil War.  The 
students were eager to participate in the discussion after the story 
and it also was a good literature tie-in for Black History Month.
