Book Reviews for Children and Teens

Stories are a deeply meaningful way that we learn about the world, and they can build empathy and understanding of ourselves and others. In each issue of Learning for Justice magazine, we review some of our favorite recent books. Our selections reflect diverse perspectives, affirm identities, celebrate diversity and highlight justice. This week, as a special treat, we’re sharing some of our best-loved books for growing readers and teens from the last few magazine issues. We hope that you and your loved ones can find some time in the coming weeks to rest, recuperate and feed your mind and spirit—perhaps with a cup of hot chocolate, a warm blanket and one of these books.
