The War Between the Classes by Gloria D Miklowitz

The War Between the Classes (Laurel-leaf books)

by Gloria D Miklowitz

What are Amy and Adam going to do about their love life? Neither Amy's traditionalist Japanese parents nor Adam's snobby, upper-class mother will accept their relationship. To make things worse, Amy and Adam are involved in the "color game" at school, an experiment that's designed to make students aware of class and racial prejudices.


Now the experiment threatens to alienate Amy from her friends and tear her apart from Adam. She knows it's time to rebel against the color game. But will the rest of the class follow her lead?

The War Between the Classes is a book I read to see if I can use it in my teaching. And I think there are definitely enough themes in this one to be able to use it for essay writing - but also for making sure my students think about various social issues.
