As a teacher-librarian, I have the opportunity to read young adult books to share with my students. The list that I have provided will have an overview of the book and personal comments. They are on a Book-mercial style image to get a taste of the essence of the book.

The Ballad of Lucy Whipple by Karen Cushman
In this story you can really feel how unhappy Lucy is to be uprooted from her nice home and moved to live in a dirty tent and take care of miners. There is so much to read in this special book. You see it in her letters to her grandparents and in her experiences living in her new world. It's a good read.
