Hi! I'm Chantel and I live with my family over on the Canadian prairies. We love to snuggle up with good books all winter long so you'll see lots of books here along with our homeschool stuff.

Have you read The Vanderbeekers of 141st street by karina yan glaser. its a great book
Love it! I was an avid reader at that age, and my mom was trying to widen my reading horizons. I think she’s going to love Christie - I loved Poirot first. She introduced me to classics like Jane Eyre and Dorian Grey. And I loved Janette Oke.
I hope she loves Agatha Christie!
You’ve picked some great books!
You might consider pre-reading the No Fear Shakespeare modern retelling. A lot of Shakespeare has innuendo that goes over kids heads, but the modern retelling spells it all out. Also, check out the Shakespeare Arkangel audiobooks - I’m listening to them with my 10th grader this year, while following along in the book (Folger Shakespeare edition).
Salt to the Sea was one of my favorite summer reads this year. 😊
The no fear book looks really cool!
4:50 from Paddington was my first Agatha Christie and therefore also my favorite. It was wonderful 😊
It's such a good one!
Like how you give her options vs just assigning. I have been doing a little more of that each year.
We need Reika to talk about her book recommendations/favorites
I wish my reading list in 9th grade had looked this fun! The Giver is another one I know is popular to assign around that age, if she hasn't already read it.
Oh yeah, I forgot about that one! I don't think she's read it, I need to double check, thanks for the reminder!
I, too, had to read Romeo & Juliette in 9th grade.
I also read "Romeo and Juliet" I. 9th grade. "Julius Caesar" in 10th grade then I moved to another state and another school and they didn't do Shakespeare (I was so disappointed) 😭
Then, I switched to a charter school in 12th grade and did "Hamlet" (I LOVED it -- so much lovely sarcasm).
My kids like Shakespeare, too. They find the old English funny.
@@abundanceintheson_316 I read all of those in high school, plus Macbeth. I enjoyed turning Julius Caesar into a how-to-manipulate-people manual in 10th grade.
@@AshleasBookshelf lol!
Could you share a link to that addition of Pollyanna? It’s my daughter’s favorite classic book.
I read Romeo and Juliet in grade 11. I didn’t read Shakespeare until grade 10 English - merchant of Venice
I've never read Merchant of Venice!
I got my teen boys Graphic Shakespeare this year but I'll check out No Fear that looks awesome. Salt to the Sea looks awesome!
Ooh, a graphic novel of Shakespeare would be good too!
I read that Jen Wilkin book this year....soooo good!
I'm definitely due for a re-read!
My girls also will not pick up What Katy Did though I've suggested several times. Every Woman Theologian is on my desk currently! My 9th grader is very into mysteries and historical fictions, but she doesn't like murder mystery. Any suggestions? I have StoryGirl on her list for this year and she's reading her first Austen novel for her historical fiction, she also is reading lots of biographies- our family book weakness. ;)
Hmm, mystery and historical fiction but no murder mystery . . . The Westing Game? Sherlock Holmes (lots of the short stories are must mysteries). I'm sure there are more but that's all I can think of at the moment . . .
Wormwood abbey is fantastic!
Has your daughter read " The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate" , " The Curious World of Calpurnia Tate " and the Calpurnia Tate Girl vet series ? They are very good . I recommand " The Neverending story " and "Momo " by Michael Ende , " The dollmaker of Krakow" by R. M Romero , " The bookshop of Dust and Dreams" by Mindy Thompson .
Would love opinions on Toby's Tale by Jennifer Freedman. I'm not sure if its aimed towards 9th grade but it might still be worth a shot?
