Reply To: Help! Book Dilemma — Appropriate or not?

One more that I remembered afterwards (hopefully this will quiet those who are going nuts over the lack of Jewish-authored, Jewish subject material for English classes)–The Memoirs of Gluckel of Hameln. I photocopy chapters and bring them in for girls to read. Few have the patience to read the entire book, but if you pick the right sections, especially ones corresponding to the History or Historia periods they’re learning, they really get into them.
