Now is the time and this is the resource that educators need if we are to create the multicultural, literacy-rich school experience that ALL students deserve. Dr. Rachel Slaughter's book, Turning the Page: The Ultimate Guide for Teachers to Multicultural Literature, fills a vacuum that educators realized existed but did not have the tool to systematically make an impact. Now that we do, I urge all parents, teachers, and administrators to get a copy and broaden our children's world. It is our duty. -- Lisa Rex, Principal Dr. Rachel Slaughter has written a timely and important book. For too long, we have missed the mark on realizing the impact of multicultural education and awareness in our schools.
