The Other Side is an excellent book.
I am wondering, though, what you mean by "rigorous text"? What is it
exactly that you are looking for?

The Other Side by J. Woodson
Clover's mom says it isn't safe to cross the fence that segregates
their African-American side of town from the white side where Anna
lives. But the two girls strike up a friendship, and get around the
grown-ups' rules by sitting on top of the fence together.

Greetings All,
I am looking for some rigorous texts for the theme "Unlikely
Friendships." I teach ESL grades 2 through 5. So far I have been
just targeting second and third grade, but any books on this topic
for up to grade 5 (fiction or expository texts, poetry too) would
be greatly appreciated. I value your input. Thanks!
