I love the idea of this list, but a huge number of these books are YA, not middle grade.
Yeah, that's true. This was a quick "note-to-self" list that I created after getting a bunch of great recommendations for my 6th graders. I guess this would more aptly be named "middle school fiction."
I do love Asian-American books and I think that we as people should read more of that because some of the books on the list, I already read them and they were very good! Also, I love everything about Chinese to Japanese possibly to anything Asian! Even though, I am not Asian- American, I still love reading books about another country or place around the world and their custom or traditions.
