I Am Change by Suzy Zail is a moving story about one young Ugandan girl’s struggle to get an education by challenging the restrictive expectations of the traditional way of life for girls in her small Ugandan village. The novel follows the lives of people whose experiences are decidedly different from our students’ and illustrates what a privilege education is – something that is often taken for granted by them.
Recommended for readers 15+ years, the novel also has extensive teacher notes available.
