I polled here last week about middle schools that have Stephen King and/or =
A Child Called It. It was pretty evenly divided. I considered getting =
parent permission but a whole new host of problems arise with that - =
forgery, one student checking it out and loaning it to another student =
without permission, stolen books, etc.
I spoke with my principal this afternoon and now I come to you. What are =
some middle school appropriate alternatives to Stephen King? Are there =
any other authors out there who write well and can help scare the kids =
which is what they want in the first place?
After my students are done with RL Stine, I usually send them to John =
Bellairs. Any other options?
Thank you!
