Memoirs are one of my favorite genres for reading and it is popular among students as well. What is it about memoirs that make them such good books? Authenticity!
If you have every written a story for school, you were probably encouraged to write about something you know. It is in writing what we know that our writing sound most natural and authentic.
Children's books that our memoirs are often wonderful stories that create empathy, and teach valuable lessons. Above are two memoirs available at North Elementary Library that are wonderful books that can teach empathy, and valuable lessons about intolerance and overcoming adversity. Stop by your local library and check out this genre for your child!
