Everything you need to understand or teach A Long Stretch of Bad Days by Mindy McGinnis.
A Long Stretch of Bad Days is a YA Mystery by Mindy McGinnis. When Lydia Chass and Bristal Jamison team up to make a podcast for school, they set out to explore the history of their town. The girls decide to focus on an infamous week in June of 1994 in which Henley was hit by a tornado, a flashflood destroyed the dog pound, and a man was murdered in his trailer. The investigation drags old secrets up to the surface, and both girls must reckon with what the long-buried truth reveals about their own families. The novel explores the past, privilege, class divides, the problem of keeping up appearances, and the question of whether or not good people can do bad things.
