Hey! Did you know that kids can write books, too?  Well, they can!
Eragon
by Christopher Paolini

Christopher Paolini began writing his epic
science fiction fantasy book
Eragon when he
was fifteen.  If you enjoy Harry Potter, you are
sure to love this book.  It is full of the magic of
dragons, elves, and monsters.  Christopher is
working on the sequel which will be released in
August 2005. Recommended by Rachel.
Who Owns the Sun?
by Stacy Chbosky

No one owns the sun and no one should ever
own another human being is the message of
this book written and illustrated when the
author was just fourteen years old!  Adults and
children alike should read this book.  All
human beings, regardless or race, religion, or
other differences are still human beings!  
Recommended by Rachel.
Five in a Row produces a wonderful integrated unit for this book.  
You may order it from their website.
