One final way in which I will connect my book selections to the importance of family is to have pupils read the dedications on each book. Most relate to family and tradition, especially oral tradition. We will keep a written list of these dedications on display. When students finish their retold family story, each will be asked to place a dedication on their story. The same will be done with each "story quilt."
