Twlight

Meyer, S. (2005). Twilight. New York. Time Warner Book Group.

 The genre of the book falls under many categories, I am using it under this category (multicultural) because of all the diverse people/ cultures in the story.  The plot of this book is a girl, Bella, moves to a small town and to live with her father and falls for a mysterious boy, Edward, who is actually a vampire.  She is also best friends with Jacob, who is native american and a werewolf.  It is written in first person narrative, from Bella's point of view. 

You could use this book with higher elementary grades as "their" choice reading for a literature circle.  You could also use it as a creative writing piece by letting them write who they would be in the book.

Big question:

How do are all the cultures alike and how do they differ?
