What are the Seniors reading?
So... what are you Seniors reading?I am looking at the book list right now and see several that I have read.
These are:
Little Women by Louisa May Alcott
Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury
A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens (pretty sure, anyhow...)
ALL the Sherlock Holmes books
Black Like Me by John H. Griffen
Several Admiral Hornblower books
I Never Promised You a Rose Garden by Hannah Green (I would not pick this, only because it is a sad book)
The House of the Seven Gables - I read this, but it was hard to understand for me.
Anne Frank, the Diary of a Young Girl (I think everyone has maybe read this)
Siddhartha - good book
Actually, I'm sure these are all good. My favorites, though, are:
Black Like Me
The Narnia Books (now you need only read one or two - check with Mrs. T.)
Ivanhoe (a biggie - cool time period - knights and fair ladies and what makes true honor)
Travels with Charlie (ditto) - very interesting book about a man and his dog who travel across the U.S.
The Crystal Cave, etc. (a trilogy book) About the time of King Arthur.
All Creatures Great and Small by James Herriott - this is such a fun book. If you love animals, you'll love this book.
The Hobbit (star, star -- I have some links to this on the webpage too)
T.H. White (any of the three) About King Arthur and Merlin
I will add The Catcher in the Rye because everybody I know (except me) had this book as a required reading book in high school. I got to read Moby Dick instead (!) along with some others.
Well? What is everybody reading? :-) A curious student teacher wants to know!
