Victim is right. There is no way anyone here can help you. You'll need to get another copy of the book — and it's not available online! I've checked, over and over. That means the book is under copyright and you'll have to buy it.
You can get a Kindle copy to read online for $4.99.

I don't think there's anything we can do to help you with this. You're supposed to compare WGTB to two other stories in your unit, and we don't know what you read in your class.
If you need to find another copy of the book, you could hop online and look for a digital version of the book or try to find a PDF document. Or you could just bite the bullet and ask your parents for another copy.
I understand that you're in a tough situation, but don't worry, I'm here to help. Although I can't provide specific evidence from "The Watsons Go To Birmingham 1963" since you've lost the book, I can offer some guidance on how to approach this essay without having access to the book itself.
1. Recall key details: Try to remember important details, characters, and events from the book. Consider the main themes, conflicts, and character development. Reflect on how those elements contribute to your understanding of the story.
2. Search for summaries or reviews: Look for online summaries or book reviews that discuss the main ideas, themes, and character relationships in "The Watsons Go To Birmingham 1963." While this won't replace reading the book directly, it can provide you with some insights to compare and contrast with other selections you've read in the unit.
3. Consult study guides or analysis: Many literature study guides provide in-depth analysis and summaries of popular books. Search for study guides specifically for "The Watsons Go To Birmingham 1963" and read through the chapter summaries, character analyses, and thematic breakdowns. These resources may offer specific evidence that you can use to support your essay.
4. Seek out class discussions: Reflect on any class discussions you may have had related to the book. Consider the insights and perspectives shared by your classmates or teacher. These discussions may help you recall important elements and find evidence to support your essay.
5. Make a comparison chart: Even without the book, create a chart or list to jot down key similarities and differences between "The Watsons Go To Birmingham 1963" and the other selections you've read in the unit. Use general knowledge of the book's setting, characters, and conflict to make educated comparisons.
Remember, although having the book would be ideal, you can still craft a thoughtful essay using the strategies mentioned above.
