Children && Young Adult Novels

This unit I found myself enjoying a lot. I have not read a book a week ever in my life. It was amazing how easily a good book can go by. The novels Stargirl and Speak were my favorite of the unit. I like how that can show young adults life lessons. They getting to their minds while reading the novels. They get to see the cruelty that high school can have. They get to see how to be above that type of behavior, and they can see the perspective of the person that it is happening to. They are good story lines, that are easy to be read by the young adults and children. There are so many book series that I loved when I was growing up. I was a fan of Lurlene McDaniel's novels. I loved Goosebumps, Captain Underpants, and so many others I can't even remember. I loved to read when i was younger.
