As a classroom teacher, consultant, author, and speaker, Larry Swartz has shared his expertise with teacher-librarians throughout Canada, the United States, and Asia. Here he is going to present one of his latest resource guides, for Lorimer’s Real Justice Series. He will introduce librarians to this free resource and discuss how they can work with teachers to use the books and activities in the classroom. The Real Justice books are narrative nonfiction biographies of wrongfully convicted youths who have gone on to clear their name. Librarians will recognize several of the titles in this series from recent Forest of Reading lists.
