<div dir="ltr">Ghosthawk by Susan Cooper. Very-well researched historically, but has a little fantasy....a colonial boy develops a supernatural friendship with a slain Native American, giving him a unique perspective on the relationship between the Native Americans and the colonists. Excellent writing, would also support writer's craft standards.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Feb 23, 2018 at 8:17 AM, Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:islma@list.railslibraries.info" target="_blank">islma@list.railslibraries.info</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><i>Salt</i> by Helen Frost is a quick novel in verse with alternating voices of a colonist and a Native American boy during War of 1812..</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Feb 22, 2018 at 7:22 PM, Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:islma@list.railslibraries.info" target="_blank">islma@list.railslibraries.<wbr>info</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>Chains by Laurie Halse Anderson is amazing.</div><div><br></div><div>Sarah Allen</div><div>Blessed Sacrament </div><div>Springfield</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Feb 22, 2018 at 1:12 PM, Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:islma@list.railslibraries.info" target="_blank">islma@list.railslibraries.inf<wbr>o</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small">Dear All,</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small">We are looking to add to our seventh grade social studies classes a fiction book that features either women or Native Americans or African Americans.
