描述
What one thing would you save if your house was on fire? In a series of linked poems, a teacher asks her children what one thing they would rescue in an emergency. To this, some students have an immediate response. Others take longer to make their selections. Some students modify their ideas after hearing what their classmates have to say. As the students discover unexpected aspects of one another and themselves a spirited discussion ensues. Linda Sue uses highly honed, entertaining, and instantly accessible poetry to bring the diverse perspectives of an inclusive classroom to life.
