I will be teaching a YA Lit graduate school class this year that is only
(gulp) one month long. I want everyone to read the same 4 books along with
as many others as they can fit in. If you could only recommend 4 YA books,
what would they be? I am torn between using classics vs. the most recently
published. I'd like to also hit as many genres as possible - perhaps
historical, sci fi, fantasy, realistic. So many books, so little time...
What would you recommend? All suggestions welcome! :-)
