"The Quiltmaker's Gift" by Jeff Brumbeau

For the Young and Young at Heart. What a great fable about giving!

A quiltmaker, with magic in her fingers, is very generous as she sews quilts and gives them to the poor and needy in her town.

Twisted by Laurie Halse Anderson

We are first introduced to the main character, Tyler, as he is finishing up his community service, the result of his attempt to become a legend by spraying graffiti on the school.

"My Sister's Keeper" by Judy Picoult

For the More Mature Audience
