A Blind Guide to Stinkville Book Club Outline

 A few years ago, I wrote a book review for the book, A Blind Guide to Stinkville. This book by Beth Vrabel, features a young girl with albinism who moves to a new town and builds a sense of empowerment she never knew she was missing.

 A few years ago, I wrote a book review for the book, A Blind Guide to Stinkville. This book by Beth Vrabel, features a young girl with albinism who moves to a new town and builds a sense of empowerment she never knew she was missing. I loved this book so much that I developed a book club that was launched for students in Texas who participated in online discussion groups and via zoom meetings. 

The content was set up in google classroom, but this was many years ago before we were thrust into the world of Zoom and other video conferencing platforms. As Blind Awareness Month approaches, I thought it would be fun to inspire you all to share this book with your students. The impact of getting students together with others who are blind or visually impaired is profound. Whether you set up a virtual book club or host one in person, I highly recommend this book as a first read for students in middle school.

Our Book Club took place over 6 weeks, so the Book Club Outline is structured as such.

That being said, I’ve also facilitated this book club with a group of children with albinism, and we read the book on our own and then met on Zoom to discuss it. In this instance, I used many of the questions to guide our discussion. Feel free to use this document as appropriate for your group. 

Happy Reading!
