Geronimo and The Bracelet-Sara Caulder

Each of these two books had such a close comparison. I enjoyed seeing the difference of how one was a picture book and the other a novel but still gave so much detail on how Americans mistreated others. Geronimo gives us insight on how the Native Americans were mistreated and then in The Bracelet we learn of how Japanese-Americans were mistreated. I hadnt even thought about the fact that children both told their stories in each books until I glanced at Meagans post. Being a future teacher I would think that my students would be more interested when the story if from a prospective of their own. This is a great opportunity for students to learn about the two unfortunate events of being forced to move but it helps them too think of times when they may have been mistreated. I would most likely use these books in my classroom because they give great insight on different cultures.
