Grade 10 book recommendation - I need help!

[justjulie]

You are awesome- keep them coming! I have heard good things of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time by Mark Haddon - anyone read it - it was the bookstore recommendation.

I had The Life of Pi in my hand, darn it! I might be headed back to the bookstore ...

I loved Curious Incident ..
Written from the viewpoint of an autistic teenager. You fall in love with him and all his quirks

I loved "The Color of Water" by James McBride
A black mans tribute to his white mother

Its me again
Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams

The Hobbit is another good one for boys who don't really like to read but I think the teacher may prefer the age appropriateness of Life of Pi. My son also has Eragon on his shelf as a book he really enjoyed.
