My middle school social studies teacher came to me with the following request. She is looking for books to read aloud to her classes to coincide with units involving the following countries. This past year she used Elizabeth Laird?s A Little Piece of Ground during her study of the Israeli and Palestinian issue. She was amazed at how a piece of fiction could hook the student?s interest and is looking to repeat the experience. She?s looking for titles about or set in the following countries featuring contemporary middle school or teenaged characters that will include information about the culture, history or current events of these countries. Any ideas? China 7/8 India 7/8 Middle Eastern countries 7/8 Brazil or other Latin American countries 5/6 Thanks in advance for your help.
