Sorry I took so long to respond. Some excellent Jewish historical fiction titles are The Harp by Meir Uri Gottesman and Sun Inside Rain by M. Bassara (both published by Targum Press). I recommend the following secular titles: The Primrose Way by Jackie French Koller (Gulliver Books), which a student borrowed in September for a report and returned it at the end of the school year because she kept rereading it, and Queen's Own Fool by Jane Yolen and Robert J. Harris (Philomel). Have a happy Purim.
