teaching literacy.
Ask me anything   Submit   ever since i was a little girl, words have danced through my head and in my heart.

"..It’s the kind of book that can be life-changing, because without ever denying the essential amorality and randomness of the natural order, “The Book Thief” offers us a believable, hard-won hope. That hope is embodied in Liesel, who grows into a good and generous person despite the suffering all around her, and finally becomes a human even Death can love. The hope we see in Liesel is unassailable, the kind you can hang on to in the midst of poverty and war and violence. Young readers need such alternatives to ideological rigidity, and such explorations of how stories matter. And so, come to think of it, do adults."
John Green, in his review of “The Book Thief” by Markus Zusak (via kaleidoscopefarts)
