Each book, chosen by Kwame, ensures students will see themselves reflected in what they read, promotes academic achievement, and provides opportunities for students to engage with each other in lively discussions.
Each grade-appropriate collection includes the resources teachers need to encourage student choice and guide meaningful discussions to strengthen student identity and develop community and empathy.
There are five age-appropriate titles in each grade level collection, which includes six copies of each title for a total of 30 books.

The educator guide is filled with tips and tricks for implementing and running a successful book club in your classroom.
Each book has an accompanying discussion guide for both the teacher and students to help build collaboration and comprehension, as well as offer additional extension opportunities.
Just Read! podcasts (transcribed for the hearing-impaired) provide access to interviews between Kwame and select authors to further engage students.
All books will come nestled in a Kwame Alexander Bookfest bin for easy organization and storage.
