[ISLMA-Share] 7th grade historical fiction

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

I completely agree with all the Laurie Halse Anderson titles!

I've also taught *Mississippi Trial 1955* by Christopher E. Crowe and *The
Rock and the River* by Kekla Magoon in 7th grade ELA classrooms and loved
using both of them.
