This book is designed to make it easy for teachers to include informational text in their teaching of A Raisin in the Sun. The authors have included a wide range of materials, in terms of reading level, subject matter, length, and style of writing. Some materials are historical in orientation and offer background information; others are more polemical in nature and offer students a window into controversies about the text; others are simply unusual, dynamic pieces that offer students different reading experiences as well interesting connections with Raisin.
