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.

Noggin by John Corey Whaley
I actually liked this story. So suspend your belief of all the details involved in attaching a head to a different body and bring the person back to life. What if you woke up and you are the same age, different body and the world has passed you by? The story works. Also his best friend before Travis dies tells him that he is gay. Then when Travis wakes up, his best friend is dating a girl. Travis also finds out his girlfriend is engaged. It's an interesting read. Fine for any library. Enjoy.
