Thank you to the collective brain for the suggestion of these titles.
Other titles were suggested on human clones but I was looking for characters that
real teens conceived through ART could relate to. (There are no human clones as of
yet)!
The problem with searching for these titles is that there is no subject heading
(yet) for:
"donor offspring--fiction"
or "artificial insemination--fiction"
or "reproductive technology -- offspring -- fiction"
or any of the other subject terms associated with ART.
I am doing this research for an article I would like to publish so if there are
others out there not included here, I would love to hear from you!
Here is my list of YA novels. A separate children's picture book list is to follow:

"Ten guards and the warden couldn't have torn me out of those books. Months passed
without even thinking about being imprisoned....I had never been so truly free in
my life." - Malcolm X
"Some kids go to the library ... Others to the street. But they can't go to the
libraries if the libraries are closed." - Officer Dombranski, NYPD
"The best morals kids get from any book is just the capacity to empathize with
other people, to care about the characters and their feelings. So you don’t have to
write a preachy book to do that. You just have to make it a fun book with
characters they care about, and they will become better people as a result." -
Louis Sachar
