[LM_NET] Target Middle School

[Jane Storts <stortsja@WAUWATOSA.K12.WI.US>]

Hello,
Some of you may have already responded to this request from another listserv but we 
are still looking for suggestions.
Our 8th grade Communicative Arts teachers would like to add some newer fiction 
titles to their collection.  They are looking for books that deal with self 
acceptance or overcoming personal obstacles.
 
In the past they have used and will continue to use Speak, Skin I'm In, and 
Stargirl.  Some suggestions from the other listserv had been Waiting for Normal, 
Higher Power of Lucky, Rules, and Worth.  They are looking for titles with both 
male and female main characters but I think we would really appreciate help with 
male characters.  Any suggestions and comments that I could share with them would 
be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks in advance,
