[CASL-L] Alternative to The Hate You Give

[Loretta Sullivan]

Hi Tanya,

Ghost Boys by Jewell Parker Rhodes is very similar to The Hate You Give,
but "less mature".  Has main male protagonist w/ secondary female
one...Listed for grades 5-8, with lower reading level that may be good if
any of those students are struggling readers.  I really liked this book.

Respectfully,
