from Listening Library
Customer Review:
I've been passionately in love with this book since the 4th grade. I think it is one of the best children's books ever written, in the many themes it explores.
Heck, you have to give the author credit for writing such an ordinary story in a style usually reserved for legends. For that's what... more info

| | 3. |  | The Chocolate War
from Knopf Books for Young Readers
Price: $11.53
Customer Review:
Robert Cormier's cynical, sardonic, nihilistic language in the Chocolate War evokes Catcher in Rye. The story itself shares many of the same tensions and violence of Pat Conroy's Lords of Discipline. This is beyond a young reader's book. It has an edgy tension that will captivate all generations.... more info

from Harcourt Children's Books
Price: $12.24
Customer Review:

| | 9. |  | The Pigman
from Starfire
Customer Review:
As a reader of The Pigman, I thought it was a very good book. I really loved the way that it was narrated. It was humorous at some points when John and Lorraine would switch off chapters. They would always correct the previous writer on something they said about each other. I thought it was clever... more info

from Simon Pulse
Price: $6.99
Customer Review:
If you have reluctant middle school readers, this is the book for you! Just read the first paragraph to them and shut the book. They will scramble to read the rest. Sharon M. Draper is a remarkable writer who puts the reader right in the middle of the story. You can never go wrong with one of her... more info
