Middle: book suggestion

[Carole Ashbridge <ashbridg@ALDUS.NORTHNET.ORG>]

Hi all
Our English and Social Studies 8 are working collaboratively on a unit on
the 1920s (we seem to Depression the kids to death), and need a suggestion
on an appropriate fiction book that might portray some of the euphoria,
culture, etc of the 20s.  - A Great Gatsby on a lower level, if you will.
My mind is a blank, I have looked in a couple of historical fiction
bibliographic books, but nothing seems quite right.  Would appreciate any
that you can suggest.  Thanks.
Carole
