Copper Sun is worth teaching in class because it deals with the matter of skin consciousness and slavery which is a main problem in history and now as well. This book will help students understand the history of slavery better through fiction. Additionally, it will let students see the different aspects of slavery through the views of Amari and Polly.
Harry Potter is widely popular book all over the world. Even though it is fantasy fiction, it shows deep friendships. Harry, Hermione, and Ron develop their friendship fighting against Voldemort, the worst vice in wizard world. They help each other when they are in trouble, which develops their relationship better. Although, in reality, we do not experience the same hardships as Harry, this book can be an example for students to be more cooperative with each other.
Twilight is another famous book in the world. I do not think this book is of much value to use in class. First of all, Twilight is just a love story. It mostly shows the feelings of Bella towards Edward. I do not want my students to absorb too much in romance because I want my students to focus on their studies. This book is not a normal love story but a love story about a vampire, which does not apply in real life.
