<div dir="ltr">Hi!
<div><br>
</div>
<div>My friend is an English teacher in the Special Ed department and just found out her class this year consists of 12 boys, 11th grade. Reading level is freshman level. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>She is reading Jason Reynold's <i>Long Way Down</i> and also <i>MacBeth</i>. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Can you recommend books you think would appeal to this small, Special Ed class full of boys. Book length ideally is around 200 pages. She is looking for one more class-wide book to read but also is going to do book talks regularly and wants ideas for the
students to read independently. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thank you,</div>
