I teach a history through historical fiction class to 6-9th graders. I can't find a good French Revolution book for this age group. I tried The Red Necklace, (it's an entertaining read, but I didn't feel it was right for this class). I love Tale of Two Cities, but this class is too young to appreciate it. To give you an idea, favorite books we have read are Johnny Tremain (that's a classic!) and Devil's Arithmetic by Jane Yolen.
Anyone want to write a HF book about the French Revolution for 6-9th grade for me? LOL!
I'm not actually serious about writing it for me I just thought I would put the idea out there in case anyone is looking for ideas.
I have pondered making this my project...but I am not certain I love the time period enough to do the research that would be needed. So if you like the French Revolution, there's a void...
And if you have any suggestions, I would welcome them.
