What Are Your Words? so...What a great set of books! What Are Your Words? sounds like a neat concept, but I get that not having enough nuance on pronouns would make for a kind-of-unhelpful read for young readers. The two books on the survivor tree sound great too—and I love that This Very Tree is narrated by the tree! And I'll see if I can track down Walking for Water and My Two Border Towns—both look lovely! This Is My America sounds so powerful as well, and good luck with the next two weeks before your daughter competes!

I like how the author made the topic of gender equality accessible for even primary students. I actually borrowed The Last Thing He Told Me from the library but didn't have to read it. Must put on hold again!
