Collection of short stories

I remember being in elementary school and having these books integrated into our English program. All of the stories compiled into these books have meanings and morals that made me think deeply as a child. I still remember some stories today, they are all very well written.

I only remember two of the stories, but I'm sure that I must have read more of them.

Raymond's Run Toni Cade Bambara - read

So far - I am REALLY enjoying all the stories in the in book. I am kinda sick of being in the one who is always reading to the kids, so if you want to record a story I would love you forever!
