Call Me Hope by Gretchen Olson

To the public, Hope Elliot appears as a normal 12-year-old. But at home, she is verbally abused by her mother. She escapes by hiding in her closet-turned-fort and by helping at her local secondhand store, Next to New. Hope grows as she studies the Holocaust at school, and by writing up a point system for her mother's abusive comments, hoping that her mother will magically see the error of her ways.

Animal Farm by George Orwell

This is a fun little story that disguises a little moral. It shows why socialism failed and will continue to fail in a nice little story about a farm run by animals.

Miss Harper Can Do It by Jane Berentson

I really liked this book because it was an unedited, truthful story about a woman during wartime. It had a modern twist on an autobiography, but was more humorous than you would expect it to be.
