I appreciate your stick-to-it-ness.<br /><br />I like your list. I confess that I got so turned off by some comment that Scott Card made about teachers or schools that I refused to order his new book. Boy, that will serve him right, huh? Ha.<br /><br />I didn't especially like the writing in the memoir: Three Little Words but the story blew me away and I think that ever legislator should be required to read the book about the truth behind foster care.<br /><br />Have a good week.Anne@HeadFullofBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01069558006454986084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22461753.post-60595484192067423082012-01-17T17:07:28.478-05:002012-01-17T17:07:28.478-05:00Oh, that's really interesting, Cath, because A...Oh, that's really interesting, Cath, because Anne of Green Gables is one of those classics I have never gotten around to reading and keep meaning to (see previous Top Ten lists, ha ha). I will definitely have to get to those now!<br /><br />SueSue Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14532098225905355332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22461753.post-31114710722106099622012-01-17T16:35:38.945-05:002012-01-17T16:35:38.945-05:00I agree that Hunger Games is a perfect crossover! ...I agree that Hunger Games is a perfect crossover! I know so many people who "aren't into" YA that read and loved them. <br /><br />I would recommend the Anne of Green Gables series. What most people don't realize is that the books grow with Anne, following her from a little girl to a 50 year old mother with 6 children! Some of the later books (House of Dreams, Rilla of Ingleside) I definitely wouldn't have been able to handle well as an 11 or 12 year old, which is the age people seem to associate with the books.Cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16475183245822795384noreply@blogger.com
