Hi Jennifer,

I think the variety here is limited, but it could be a resource for the future:

Subject: [ISLMA-Share] Young Adult books in Arabic

Hi all!  I have a teacher doing lit circles next week. She has a new to us student who speaks Arabic and she wants to include him in the literature circles, but he has very little reading fluency in English. I am having trouble locating popular YA fiction translated into Arabic. I have a few books (Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, Does My Head Look Big in This, Grapes of Wrath) but he has read all of these already.  Does anyone have a resource I could use to get a couple of YA books in Arabic quickly?  I  have checked Amazon and Barnes and Noble already. There doesn't seem to be much available.
