An entire health curriculum can be built with a foundation of passages from this book.  Each of the collections throughout can be an area of focus for new information and skills.  We highly recommend reading it with your Middle School classes.  Star Fish brings a whole new perspective to bullying, family relationships, self-esteem, self-identity, school, growing up, and coping skills.  It is a simple, yet powerful read for all ages, but particularly important to touch on in middle school.
