Book excerpt: "The Rebellious Read Aloud attempts to empower educators to courageously converse with students around important and culturally relevant current topics in a way that's developmentally appropriate and meets ELA and social justice standards. After laying the foundation for why diverse books and difficult conversations about "hushed topics" are important; how to create classroom conditions that scaffold students' deep thinking and conversations using picture books; and how to address concerns from students, colleagues, and parents, this book presents 45 read aloud lessons around current, diverse picture books that can spark deep conversation and learning about self, others, and the world. Author Vera Ahiyya is beloved by thousands of educators worldwide as The Tutu Teacher (@thetututeacher and @diversereads on Instagram) for her love of children's books, her enthusiasm for teaching young children, and her passion for facilitating conversations about race, identity, and social justice using read alouds as an entry point. This is her first professional book -- sure to spark the rebellious reader inside elementary teachers everywhere"--
