Imagine going to the bookstore and discovering that all of your favorite shelves had been replaced with books in languages you didn't understand, about topics you had no exposure to. Now, imagine being a teenager who has known nothing but urban life and staring at a classroom library full of books about the Wild West, famous shipwrecks, and 18th century poetry. This is exactly what my 9th grade students are subjected to when they see our classroom libraries. The well-intentioned literary donations of the city and state fall very short of meeting the needs and interests of my, mostly immigrant and/or low-income, 9th grade students.
