This would be a great book for Intermediate Readers
This book is about a girl name Naomi who lives with her grandma and younger brother due to neglect from her mother. The story is about her growing in confidence as she faces many trials due to a custody battle and abuse from her mother.
This book would be a good book club or reading groups book. There are many important topics and perspectives that would be helpful to learn from this book, but it is also full of heavier topics that would be good to have some guidance and time to talk about… (meer)

This book is great for 4th-5th grade students. The book is about a young girl who faces adversity, struggle, and personal loss. This book is very inspiring, and it teaches kids about how to keep going when you are in a hard situation. I would definitely have this in my future classroom
