Lightning Lit: Grade 5
Students will go to Gary, New York City, and the Deep South; they’ll journey to Canada, Europe, and Pakistan; they’ll travel from a hundred years in the past to some unknown time in the future; and they’ll explore a fantasy world peopled with strange characters. You’ll find three works of nonfiction (two standard memoirs and a poetic one), four realistic novels (including one based on historical events), one work of fantasy, and one of science fiction. I hope students will find stories here to delight them, broaden their world, and increase their understanding.
