*Chinese Cinderella and the Secret Dragon Society* by Adeline Yen Mah is one
that my students read last year for historical fiction and the boys and
girls in the book club for that book enjoyed it.
Here is a link to learn a bit more about the book

later than 1980!

Subject: [MOSAIC] East Asian Fiction/Nonfiction Novel

The ninth grade social studies (Geography) teachers in my building are
looking for a fiction or nonfiction novel as a companion to Red Scarf Girl
which they have students read during their unit on East Asia.  They would
like a title which would be more appealing to the boys in their classes.
The other caveat is that they want the subject matter to pertain to no later
than 1980!

Anyone have any suggestions?

[MOSAIC] East Asian Fiction/Nonfiction Novel

2008-09-05 Thread Mohrhauser, Sarah
The ninth grade social studies (Geography) teachers in my building are looking 
for a fiction or nonfiction novel as a companion to Red Scarf Girl which they 
have students read during their unit on East Asia.  They would like a title 
which would be more appealing to the boys in their classes.  The other caveat 
is that they want the subject matter to pertain to no later than 1980!

Anyone have any suggestions?
