The historical fiction novels in this on-level collection provide rich content for book club conversations and are worth reading interpretively and discussing deeply. Engaging nonfiction texts support the novels by illuminating the time and place in which the historical fiction stories are set. This collection channels students to read between fiction and nonfiction, helping them to develop their analytical skills as well as their historical understanding. In this shelf, there are 17 titles with 4 copies each that are designed for book clubs. In addition, there are 12 separate books for independent reading to continue students' learning within topics they embark on through book clubs.
