Heidi Wells asked Mike Selby:

I am reading Freedom Libraries. Thank you for this history. do you have suggestions for growing a library in a middle school in a black neighborhood on Philadelphia? Heidi Wells

Mike Selby Hi Heidi, thank-you for reaching out :) Are you looking for the same type of books for the middle school?

Yes, I am supporting a 10 year old tuition free middle school, the St, James School in North Philadelphia. The student body is entirely children of color as far as I know. They don't have much space, but they are building a new building in the next year or so. I hope they have room for a library and they support their graduates for years. Do you have a list of appropriate books for middle school and beyond?
