My 7yo just finished reading Mighty Jack by Ben Hatke to me. I enjoyed this book a lot, and I looked forward to reading it each night. I am excited to read the second one!
I just finished April Baker-Bell’s Linguistic Justice: Black Language, Literacy, Identity, and Pedagogy. My department did a book study of this book in preparation of the National Writing Project Rocky Mountain Regional Conference this June 11-13, 2021. If you haven’t registered, I know they are accepting late registrations: https://www.nwprmrc.com/. I am looking forward to hearing her speak at the conference. The book is incredible.

Ricki, the books you’ve been reading sound great! Linguistic Justice sounds incredibly valuable, and Like a Love Story sounds like a great read as well. Thank you both for the great post and round-up!
Ricki~ I love reading about your 7-year-old reading to you each night. My 7 y/o is doing the same. Lately she’s been obsessed with the Wings of Fire series. She started with the regular books and then I ordered a couple of the graphic novels, which only further ignited her obsession. LOL I’ve put in a request to borrow Mighty Jack. I’m excited to see if this is another series she might like. Hope you fully enjoy your upcoming conference!
