[LM_NET] Tar: Don't Grow Up Without Reading These Books

["Meintz, Nicole" <MeinN@COLDWATERSCHOOLS.ORG>]

Hi all-
I have a 7th grade teacher who would like to offer her students a list of books to 
read over the summer.  She would like books that would help them understand the 
world a little better.  The example I'm thinking of is Sherlock Holmes-so many 
things we say came from that (but I'll be darned if I can think of a more specific 
example...)  Do you have any suggestions for 7-8th grade level (or higher, but not 
TOO high) books that would be suitable for this purpose?

Thank you in advance!
