[LM_NET] TAR: YA Novels written in poetic form

[Susan <catmafia@DIRECWAY.COM>]

I went looking through the archives and didn't find anything and when 
searching the internet I found a list, but it was a couple years behind 
and I know there have been several great books in this format during 
this time.  The list is at 
http://www.skokie.lib.il.us/s_teens/tn_books/tn_booklists/poem_novels.html

I would love to have recomendations of novels written in some sort of 
poetic format.  A short note about the book and any specifics about the 
poetry types contained would be great, expecially if they have some form 
of appendix that addresses the poetry in the book.  I've had several 
instances recently where I've needed this list.  I've only read a few 
and loved them. I would be happy to coallate them into a list to have 
for quick reference.  So often they fall within Realistic Fiction, but 
know that there are Historical Fiction and other genres in this form.

One additional question, are you all making this a part of the subject 
headings that you have hot linked in your catalogs, so that students can 
find more of the format when they like them?
