[Amy Johnston <ajohnston@SCEDK12.COM>]

Dear Collective Wisdom,

I am trying to compile a list of novels that could be used with our grade nine 
science classes=2E  I don't want "science fiction" as such, but novels that 
incorporate science concepts into the story=
=2E

I'm thinking of books like:

Matas - Cloning Miranda
Farmer - House of the Scorpion
Paulsen - Transall Saga
Crichton - The Lost World ; Timeline
Card - Ender's Game

I need more for the list!  Can anyone suggest one or more titles?  Thanks in 
advance=2E  I'll compile a hit and post it=
=2E

Amy
