[CASL-L] books for a high school boy

[Green, Derrith]

Hi Katie,
Would he consider narrative nonfiction? My two go-to books for reluctant
males are

*American Shaolin : flying kicks, Buddhist monks, and the legend of iron
crotch*  by Matthew Polly
*The other Wes Moore : one name, two fates*  by Wes Moore

*“I am rooted, but I flow.”  - Virginia Woolf (The Waves)*
