What Johnny Made!
Ebooks - easy and for everyone - staff and students
What are the boys reading?
The Hunger games - yes still!
The Knife of Never Letting Go - dystopian series.
The Cherub Series - again still!
Maze Runner - more dystopia and they made a movie!
The Amulet Series - Graphic novel, great for reading challenged boys
Wool - Sci Fi goodness. Great at every level and the staff like it too.
Enders Game - the classic Sci- Fi
The Enemy Series - zombies!
Tomorrow When the War Began - the classic series is still popular
Divergent - they made a movie
Looking for Alaska - John Green, the man for the thinking teen
And all our Manga. Fairy tail, One Piece etc etc. The boys beg for new ones, they are addictive and they are loved by Yr 9s to Yr 13. They watch them at home as anime and read the books as well.
