[QUOTE="Steely, post: 139450, member: 3301"] You know, I find it interesting that this is required reading. I remember distinctly when difficult child had to read it for class. They read it out loud - and the day they finished the last chapter difficult child had a [I]huge [/I]meltdown at school. All he could tell me later was that the book was just so, so sad. I, personally, find it annoying that we require 6th graders to read something that is so disturbingly sad. But perhaps that is just me. I remember in the third grade reading The Taste of Blueberries and being sad and fearful for days. It really is all based on the kiddos maturity and emotional level - and schools should take this into consideration. [/QUOTE]
