Terrible Things Book

One of my favorite books to use with middleschoolers when teaching the Holocaust. We did this as a read aloud in all five of my classes today, and each time I finished, the room was silent- perfectly still in a very eerie but moving way. This is a book that when read to elementary students, they can explain that the bunny was trying to stand up for those being bullied, but 8th graders can take away so much more from it and explain the allegory itself. Definitely a book I'd recommend when wanting to get the message across of what happens when people don't stand up for others.
