Need a new book to share with your students? The following are recommended reading from MEA members from across the state.

- Janice Rawson, RSU 16 EA With an engaging voice, reluctant camper Cooper Wilder tells a story of environmental intrigue for outdoorsy middle-grade readers. Author Tamra Wight has young readers tasting the oozing s’mores, smelling the stench of maggot-riddled trash, and feeling the squishy mud between their toes with her descriptive language.

Reading Level 7 “I always recommended books by Roald Dahl and Gary Paulsen.”

- Lois Kilby-Chesley, RSU 5 teacher and MEA President

In this unique retelling of a young boy’s struggle to survive in the Canadian wilderness, Paulsen raises the stakes with the question: what if Brian hadn’t been rescued at the end of summer, but instead had been left to confront his deadliest enemy—a northern winter? Source: www.scholastic.com

Reading Level 9-12

“Bowling Alone is a great read for government classes. It makes the argument that Americans are losing their sense of community and civic virtue, and how this generation can recapture the idea that there is a common good.”

- Mike Thurston, History Teacher, Winslow EA
