Crow Boy by Taro Yashima and A Hundred Dresses by Eleanor Estes are modern classics. Told from the point of view of a child who witnessed the mistreatment of another, these are stories of remorse.

Library Love
Libraries! We want to look at books about these magical places, portals to our world, our selves, and other worlds and selves we might become.
