    Happy Birthday!

    I just read Jack Blank and The Imagine Nation and I highly recommend it. It's not only an enjoyable read for kids and adults, but it's full of powerful messages for it's readers.

    Wow! I didn't think this was a hard question, but as I scrolled down to comments, it became enormous! I think...probably The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie. Because not only is it honest and beautiful and funny, it's also heart-breakingly sad and wonderful and should make everyone CHANGE.
