Mr Sci Fi

Another topic inspired me to make this, but for those of you who had required literature in Grammar/Elementary/Grade school, which were among your favorites and most dreaded?

I liked "The Giver," "The Pigman," and "Mr. Pauper's Penguins." "Bridge To Terabithia" was ok, and I could barely get through "The Red Badge Of Courage."

Oh, I almost forgot "Call Of The Wild." Can't forget ol' Jack London.

The only two that stand out for me are: The Giver and The Outsiders.

The only reason I liked the Giver was how it ended. Most of the class thought the open-ending was a cop out, I thought it was brilliant.

the catcher in the rye, I guess, although I read it before it was assigned.

"To Kill a Mockingbird" has always stayed with me.

I read catcher in the rye just recently to see what all the fuss was about - I am none the wiser...
