Schooled by Gordon Korman is a good one and the Intermediate Nutmeg Nominee Out of my Mind by Sharon Draper is great too.

Wonder is a fantastic story. He has physical issues that keep him from connecting, but it has a great message.

Hi Everyone!

I just received the following request from my school social worker.  Any suggestions? 

Do you know of a book (fiction) that might help a fifth grade boy who is having trouble connecting to people because his social skills are poor? I want to read a book to him that he might enjoy.

Thanks a bunch!
