I'm familiar with several of Walter Dean Myers' books, but according to amazon, _Shooter_ is for high school kids. After reading the synopsis, I doubt I'd put it in my class library, even at the high school level. But---that's me. Barbara/6th/FL
-----Original Message----- On Behalf Of ljackson One of my coaches found a box of hardbound copies of this book in a closet this weekend and wondered about the appropriateness of the text. She was going to toss them, based on the evaluation of a very conservative former colleague. I have not read the book, but urged her to read it first. Have any of you used this book and what do you think of it? -- Lori Jackson _______________________________________________ The Literacy Workshop ListServ http://www.literacyworkshop.org To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/lit_literacyworkshop.org.
