Listed here are books you can use to help students understand the Core Democratic Values. Although many of these books are for lower grade levels, I find reading them to middle school students understand the concepts. These books were drawn from personal experience, conferences, and recommendations by teachers. If you have a book you use with your students please send me the title and which CDV it supports.
