[CASL-L] book recommendations

[Musket, Kimberly]

Hello-
I am looking for recommendations for the following. I have many titles
already but I'm hoping for new suggestions.

   - books with characters giving, caring, showing compassion and empathy
   towards others - grades 6-8
   - narrative nonfiction books  (not biographies/memoirs) for 8th grade -
   looking for books that are happy, positive (no tragedies, wars, etc.)

I created a google doc in case others might be interested in the lists. If
you have a suggestion, would you please add it to this document?

If it's easier, feel free to just reply to this email.

If you need to add a line, click in the cell, on the right, of the last row
and press the tab key.

Thank you so much!
Kim
