Here are two links to sites which list graphic texts for students of all ages. That way you can use these books for all ages. No Flying No Tights offers reviews and has the site divided into two sections: teens and younger kids. the descriptions are very good. The American Library Association has another place where you can find some books. Here is the link.

I can recommend Bone. It is a series (about 1000 pp. in all) broken up into shorter passages. It is a good and funny adventure that appeals to kids of all ages. One of your classmates read it last semester and one other a few semesters ago.

There is a Parent group that works to ban books. Here is the link to the list sorted by author. Is there any book they missed?

Go to an online SMOG readability calculator to easily calculate the readability of text.

Here is a link to Robot Dreams that you may find interesting.

I have set up a wiki which you can use to collaborate on any class project in any class. This is the link to WORKSPACE. The wiki is open, so you do not have to register. Just start working.

xopc29.org has a pretty good collection of links that you may find useful and interesting. Here is just one example: Adolescent Literacy.
