I have several teachers who would like suggestions for reading aloud to their 
"Super Study" homerooms. They meet each day for 20 minutes during alternate lunches.
Would anyone have any good ideas? They would like shorter books, high interest, 
especially for the guys.

Reading is not simply an intellectual pursuit but an emotional and spiritual one. 
It lights the candle in the hurricane lamp of self; that's why it survives. There 
are book clubs and book Web sites and books on tape and books online. There are 
still millions of people who like the paper version, at least for now. And if that 
changes—well, what is a book, really? Is it its body, or its soul? Would Dickens 
have recognized a paperback of A Christmas 
Carol<http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1449910416/?tag=nwswk-20>, or, for 
that matter, a Braille version? Even on a cell-phone screen, Tiny Tim can God-bless 
us, every one. ~~Anna Quindlen
