</ol>

151

<p>^Only on CC: read The Jungle in 7th grade…a tough read for a kid at that age, but looking back, I`m surprised how much I understood. It was just pretty long and took me a while to read.

  1. To Kill a Mockingbird (8th grade)
  2. Night (8th)
  3. The Most Dangerous Game (It`s actually a short story out of our textbook we read last year, but I found it very intriguing.)</li> <li>Diary of Anne Frank...this is a tie between 2nd and 3rd, so I`ll put it in 4th (8th)</li> <li>The Outsiders (8th....lots of books from 8th grade)</li> </ol>
