Re: [LM_NET] book suggestions - survival

["Stein, Patti" <PSTEIN@SLZUSD.ORG>]

Touching Spirit Bear, by Ben Mikaelsen, is an excellent novel that deals
with the issues of survival and personal growth. It is extremely popular
with my middle school students.  The sequel, Ghost of Spirit Bear, is
now available, and is also very good.
