Teach middle and high school kids how the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement and anti-police sentiment affected crime, families, and small businesses in American cities. In this engaging and educational Around the World book, your tweens and teens will meet Mateo—the son of Mexican immigrants who run a grocery store in Los Angeles, California. Worried about his family's safety, Mateo learns from a local law enforcement officer what he can do to help and make a difference in his community.
