Breaking Rank

3 books:
Whale Talk by Chris Crutcher
A Child Called It by Dave Pelzer
Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli


Statement:
I believe that this book would be a good for students both boys and girls in the middle school to early high school years. One of the issues that is brought up in this book is cliques. MIddles schoolers as well as high schoolers deal with people discriminating against different groups that are in the schools. It would be easy for them to relate to the situations that the characters are going through.


Question:
What made Casey want to tutor Baby even though she knew it would cause trouble for those in the clan and the people outside of the clan?
