Dear LM_NETTERS,

        My Middle School Student Council wants to donate $200 to the library to =
purchase books in memory a long-time faculty member who died recently =
from cancer.  She was an English teacher who encouraged our kids to read =
good books and poetry.  The students specified that they want to buy =
"really good, hard cover books" and a book of really good poems.  Middle =
school here is grades 6-8.   They want books that the kids will enjoy =
that are good books.=20

        I'm looking at Newbery's and other award winners.  Any suggestions?  =
Any poet or collection that would fit what the kids are asking for?    =20

        Most of the kids are reading above grade-level.  We are in the Virgin =
Islands and have a culturally diverse student body. =20

        TIA
