For the sixth grade students in Ms. Mélange's class, Friday is the best day of the week. Because that's the day Ms. Mélange takes them on a new adventure through world history, exploring the past and how it reflects our present. In this delightful history book, Ms. Mélange takes her students through the tumultuous, often ignored origins and cultural impact of Haiti. Tackling their fight of independence and the country's struggles thereafter, Friday Stories Learning About Haiti provides a nuanced, thoughtful look at history that celebrates Haiti's unique culture and diverse heritage.
