[LM_NET] Target: MS Literature

[Carolyn Wert <cmwert@COMCAST.NET>]

Good morning,
  An 8th grade teacher has just been told they are revamping their curriculum and 
may no longer teach To Kill a Mockingbird or Romeo and Juliet.  She is looking for 
ideas of books to replace these. She was hoping at least one of them would tie into 
the Civil War (Soc. Stud. curric.).  Any thoughts on great literature for middle 
schoolers?  Thanks in advance for your help.
