[aisle] World History Read-Aloud for 9th grade

[Meyer, Gail]

Collective Brain,

A 9th grade World History teacher has been reading “Sugar Changed The World” by Marc Aronson to her classes. It’s worked out well for her, length-of-chapter-wise, and has held the student’s attention. She’s looking for another book to read out loud to them, a chapter or section a day, as they’re almost done with Sugar.  It can be almost any non-fiction topic. She said they’re kind of tired of World Wars I and II right now. A few asked for maybe something for Black History Month, but not about slavery.  I was thinking “We are not yet Equal” by Carol Anderson but I’m not completely sold on it. Does anyone have any other suggestions for us?
