    Posted by Sara on 5/22/08

    treatment of children one of them. Wringer by Spinelli - but
    be forewarned - the meaty issue is the treatment of animals
    and children can be upset by the idea that there are indeed
    people who treat animals poorly. The Breadwinner - great book
    about a girl who must pretend to be a boy to help her family
    survive in Afghanistan under the Taliban. The Giver - your
    brainy kids will Love this book - others might not quite 'get
    it'.
