To Kill a Mockingbird
by Harper Lee
“Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit 'em, but remember it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.” A lawyer’s advice to his children as he defends the real mockingbird of Harper Lee’s classic novel—a Black man accused of assaulting a white woman. Through the eyes of Scout and Jem Finch, Harper Lee explores the irrationality of adult prejudices regarding race and class in 1930s Alabama. One man's fight for justice awakens the conscience of a town steeped in prejudice, violence, and hypocrisy. But history only tolerates so much. Upon its 1960 release, To Kill a Mockingbird became an instant bestseller and critical darling, later winning the Pulitzer Prize and inspiring an Academy Award-winning film.

A story of injustice, resilience, and the enduring human spirit, *The Grapes of Wrath* captures the essence of a nation struggling with inequality and the very meaning of justice.

But Camp Green Lake is no lake at all, just endless holes baking under the sun. Stanley soon suspects there's more to this digging than just 'character building.' The warden is searching for something hidden beneath the dry lakebed. Can Stanley unearth the truth in this darkly funny story of crime, punishment, and the chance for redemption?
