8th grade and 10th grade reading lists
I am updating the current reading list for the required book report my 8th and 10th graders have to do during the fall semester. In my opinion, the lists they have need to be updated. I have a lot of freedom at the Ed Center, but I don't know what I can and cannot change about the course just yet. I am hoping that once I present these lists to the principal, she will not make any changes. Here are my lists (if you have suggestions for additional books, please post a comment).

The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkein
A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L’Engle
The Red Pony by John Steinbeck
Where the Red Fern Grows by Wilson Rawls
