Be Real, Macy Weaver
by Lakita Wilson
When Macy Weaver has to move to a new place, she sees it as an opportunity to reinvent herself.
Follow her as she navigates new friendships and the pressures of maintaining the version of herself she's presented to the world.
If you can be anything, why not try being yourself?
This is a great book for readers who want to think deeply about self-identity, the meaning of friendship, and what it means to label ourselves.
How These Live Book Clubs Work
Participation in the live book club includes access to a set of resources and activities as well as interactive components.
Participants receive
- A suggested reading schedule
- PDF reading guides with comprehension questions
- Vocabulary/reading activities
- Discussion board posts in our online classroom
- Writing/multimodal project prompts related to the reading
- An invitation to a live discussion
- A recording of the summary of the live discussion
- An optional feedback add-on for the final paper/project
- Rubrics for at-home feedback
Families are welcome to use as much or as little of the suggested resources and activities as they'd like to fit their interest and schedules.
(There is an option to add a Feedback Add-on for Final Projects at checkout.)
Ages:
10 - 13
Dates:
September 1 - 30, 2025
Live Meeting:
Monday, September 29, 2025 at 1pm Eastern
Sessions typically last around 1 hour.
Those who cannot attend the live session will receive a recorded summary.
(Note: If there is high enrollment, additional live sessions may be opened to keep sessions small enough for meaningful discussion.)
Supplies:
- A copy of the book Be Real, Macy Weaver (ISBN 9780593465721)
- Used and borrowed copies will work just fine! If your learner is going to participate in final projects and reading guides, I recommend having a physical copy even if they primarily read the audiobook.
