English Assignment (read one of the two novels)
Maus I is a graphic novel set during the holocaust. It has been selected as a summer reading option since it has thematic connections with the novel Night by Elie Wiesel which students will read during their English course. Please be aware that this novel is sometimes sold as a complete work which combines Maus I with Maus II. If choosing this selection, students are only required to read Maus I and will only be assessed on Maus I. With that being said, they may enjoy reading the sequel and may have the opportunity to read it as a self-selected read during their course. This is a nice selection for students who are not avid readers due to its graphic format.
Warriors Don't Cry is the autobiographical account of one of the first students to integrate into Little Rock's Central High School after the Supreme Court ruling, Brown v. Board of Education in 1954. It has been selected as a summer reading option since it has thematic connections with the novel To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee which students will read during their English course. This is a nice selection for students who enjoy reading novels and becoming immersed in a compelling narrative story.
This title is available in audiobook via Bucks County Free Library
