Link, Michael, and Dana live in a quiet town. But it's woken up very quickly when someone sneaks into school and vandalizes it with a swastika. Nobody can believe it. How could such a symbol of hate end up in the middle of their school? Who would do such a thing? Because Michael was the first person to see it, he's the first suspect. Because Link is one of the most popular guys in school, everyone's looking to him to figure it out. And because Dana's the only Jewish girl in the whole town, everyone's treating her more like an outsider than ever.

Ever since Ellie wore a whale swimsuit and made a big splash at her fifth-birthday party, she's been bullied about her weight. To cope, she tries to live by the Fat Girl Rules - like "no making waves", "avoid eating in public", and "don't move so fast that your body jiggles". And she's found her safe space - her swimming pool - where she feels weightless in a fat-obsessed world. In the water, she can stretch herself out like a starfish and take up all the room she wants. It's also where she can get away from her mom, who thinks criticizing Ellie's weight will motivate her to diet.

The construct of race has always been used to gain and keep power, to create dynamics that separate and silence. This remarkable reimagining of Dr. Ibram X. Kendi's National Book Award-winning Stamped from the Beginning reveals the history of racist ideas in America, and inspires hope for an antiracist future. It takes you on a race journey from then to now, shows you why we feel how we feel, and why the poison of racism lingers. It also proves that while racist ideas have always been easy to fabricate and distribute, they can also be discredited.

Loved it.
This book made me horrified in the plausibility of the threats the main characters faced. It also ends on a great call to action.

Amazing Middle School Students Survive Disasters
Three intertwined stories help explain what has happened while Earth is on its way to rising two degrees Celsius in temperature.
As a science teacher I look for ways to help my students understand the world around us and how it changes based on our collective choices. Two degrees helps me and my students understand who and how climate change and rising global temperatures affect everyone.
One of the stories features a dad who disagrees with the idea of climate change and how the family can love and support one another while living in fundamental disagreement.

A Book of our times
Even though I’m a grandmother I listened to your book. It became a point of contention with the local school board and the One Book, one School choice by the middle school teachers. I and others were appalled that due to a politically minded group of school board members the choice of “Two Degrees” was nixed. I and a group of my peers were appalled that the Superintendent made the decision to go along with the board and not support the teachers’ choice. At least your book is available at the school for any student who chooses to read and inform himself. I learned a-lot from your novel and commend you for it. Thank you! I enjoyed your commentary!

We can all do our part
Such a great way to show kids how they can help our planet and what will happen if we don’t all work together!
