I'll have to think about this one...way too many to chose from! Love young adult books!

[Virgil]

Where The Wild Things Are. Is that young enough?

[Scheherazade]

Hey, I read that book just couple of days ago! So what?

Did you really? Isn't that a great children's book, especially for boys I think? I loved it as a child. It's the only children's book I remember. It has stuck with me. I was only kidding about nominating it.

[Scheherazade]

Yes, I like it too and it is a book one can have fun with, which children love.

I would like to nominate Kim by Kipling.

Oh my God. I didn't think of that as a young adult novel. Yes, it's already got my vote. I loved that novel.

I would like to nominate "Bridge to Terabithia" by Katherine Patterson

[bouquin]

I would like to nominate Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Books.
Cheers!

I know I can't nominate but someone else should nominate Noughts and Crosses by Blackwell.

[Pensive]

Perhaps The Catcher in the Rye? Doesn't it come in Young Adult genre as well? I started it a few days back but apparently it seems that I wouldn't have free time to read it until the end of January (and I already have got a few pages left from The God of Small Things to complete), so I think it would almost be February by the time I complete it.

I would like to nominate "Bridge to Terabithia" by Katherine Patterson

Good one!

I have read it twice and loved it. It is definitely one of my favourite books!

I just found out that "Krabat" by Otfried Preussler is a young adult book. Or well, somewhy they named it "The Satanic Mill" when they translated into English.

I’ve been trying to decide between two, but I’ve just decided to go with a third.

I nominate The Teacher's Funeral : A Comedy in Three Parts by Richard Peck.

"I just found out that "Krabat" by Otfried Preussler is a young adult book. Or well, somewhy they named it "The Satanic Mill" when they translated into English.

Is that the "Robber Hotzenplotz" Otfried Preussler? If so, it gets my vote!
