The Texas Lone Star Reading List is a recommended reading
list developed by public and school librarians from the
Young Adult Round Table. The purpose of the list is to encourage
students in grades 6, 7, or 8 to explore a variety of current
books. The Lone Star List is intended for recreational reading,
not to support a specific curriculum. Due to the diversity
of this age range, Texas librarians should purchase titles
on this list according to their individual collection policies.
Each book on the list has been favorably reviewed for grades
6, 7, or 8 in a professional review source.
The Texas Library Association
sponsors reading lists solely to encourage free voluntary
reading.
