[LM_NET] Books for young readers/high ability

[Brenda Humphrey <brenda_humphrey@BELLSOUTH.NET>]

A parent has asked about fiction books for her daughter who is in the third grade 
but has a high reading ability (STAR test results 5.3 to 8.1). The parent is 
concerned about the mature themes that are found in many of the fiction books that 
fall into those levels. She is currently reading the Narnia books, but wants to 
read modern young adult fiction. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
