Allison TX Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Can I get some opinions on the reading list I've come up with for my 7th and 8th grade boys? We will be using Notgrass America the Beautiful for our history, but not the lit suggestions. Blood on the River Calico Captive My Brother Sam is Dead Tom Sawyer Great Little Madison Lincoln a Photobiography Across Five Aprils Treasure Island War Horse The Yanks are Coming Seargent York Number the Stars Corrie Ten Boom 10,000 Days of Thunder Call of the Wild God's Smuggler The Giver Any thoughts? I would like one more book on World War 2 if anyone has any suggestions. :bigear: Thanks so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyGrace Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I don't have any suggestions for you because I'm trying to do the same thing, but this looks great and I'm going to steal some of your ideas! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
