The Hate You Give
Angie Thomas
Tuesday, May 28
7PM
In this award winning book, you will find a powerful and timely story.
Sixteen-year-old Starr Carter moves between two worlds: the poor neighborhood where she lives and the fancy suburban prep school she attends. The uneasy balance between these worlds is shattered when Starr witnesses the fatal shooting of her childhood best friend Khalil at the hands of a police officer.
~On display in the Children’s room:
We have another wonderful display of art from the Lincoln Cooperative Preschool!
