The seventh grade teacher of the gifted is looking for a novel for his students to
read to tie in with Halloween--horror, science fiction, the occult. He wants to
use this with all of his students. In addition, he wants a collection of
nonfiction books that relate to the subject.
My challenges:
Find a fiction book that is challenging and intriguing, but one that won't have
parents complaing that we're teaching witchcraft. The teacher suggested Ray
Bradbury, though that doesn't seem Halloweeny to me.
I think I'm looking for something creepy and paranormal, maybe about ESP or
telepathy.
I eagerly await your collective wisdom and out-of-the box thinking.
