Well this year,Its 2.
But I only remember the name of one. House On Mango Street. Last year in 8th grade,We had to read "The Giver" by Lois Lowry, I thinks thats how to spell her name,And " A Child Called It",Now that book I would recommend to anyone. Its a very good book I mean its so sad how she did her own son,I finished it in like 1 day. I couldn't put it down. |

Yay, summer school is over! Now to start summer reading!
...anyway, My assignment is to read Nectar In A Sieve (the author's name is long and unusual) and do a dialectical journal. Then read either Thousand Pieces Of Gold or Montana 1948. |

I read Civil Disobedience last school year. It was supposed to be a supplement read to The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail.
CD sucked... The Night Thoreau etc. was better |
