[aisle] Book recommendations

[Carol Naughton]

One interesting thing to note is that The Great Trouble is heavily based on
a nonfiction book called The Ghost Map by Steven Johnson. Not sure what you
are covering, but it might be interesting to do a chapter comparison or
other activity with an excerpt from that book. Also, it was a Caudill
nominee in 2017.
