Not in Room 204
by Jaime Zollars Shannon RiggsMrs. Salvador is one tough teacher. But Regina Lillian Hadwig, a very quiet student, doesn't mind. She likes the order and discipline Mrs. Salvador expects. At a report card conference, Mrs. Salvador tells Regina's mom that Regina is doing a great job, but that she is very quiet. "Are you quiet at home, like you are in school?" Mrs. Salvador asks Regina. And Regina thinks of the secret she keeps so quiet--the one even her mom doesn't know, about the secret things her father does. "Yes, I'm quiet at home, too," says Regina. "Maybe we can work on that," says Mrs. Salvador. When Mrs. Salvador reads a book about Stranger Danger, she emphasizes one thing--that the person doing the inappropriate touching might not be a stranger at all. It might be someone a child knows very well. Will Regina find the courage to tell Mrs. Salvador her terrible secret? Shannon Riggs covers this sensitive topic with compassion and expertise. She lives in Oregon. The expressive illustrations, by Jaime Zollars, who lives in California, complement the text. Ms. Zollars also illustrated The Great Math Tattle Battle. A note about sexual abuse is included.
