I think this would be a great book for anyone student in understanding that just because their skin color may match another's doesn't mean they are the same, and even if it isn't the same that doesn't mean they are that much different.
I chose grades 6 through 8 for this book because i think it is too in depth for younger age groups but I also think it could be used for older students.
