The class has been split into four groups, each group studying one of the four books of their choice. Most of the students prefer this approach to the normal whole class and one book routine.&amp;nbsp; The types of books vary: &amp;quot;Witch Child&amp;quot; a book set in the Medieval Ages about a girl called Mary, granddaughter of a witch; &amp;quot;Stone Cold&amp;quot; is about a serial killer who targets the homeless; &amp;quot;Tulip Touch&amp;quot; is about a girl who plays mind games manipulating her friends, til she has none; &amp;quot;Coram Boy&amp;quot; is about a young boy, a slave, and his journey.&lt;/p&gt;

<p><span style="color: #00ff00;font-size: 1.2em;">1. CATHY CASSIDY is the best author ever (in the minds of preteens with hopeless crushes on the boy characters... :) ) and she has written 6 books incredible books, one of which was a mini book sold with one issue of Mizz magazine. Here are their names:</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #00ff00;font-size: 1.2em;">Dizzy</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #00ff00;font-size: 1.2em;">Indigo Blue</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #00ff00;font-size: 1.2em;">Driftwood</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #00ff00;font-size: 1.2em;">Scarlett</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #00ff00;font-size: 1.2em;">Sundae Girl</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #00ff00;font-size: 1.2em;">Love, Peace and Chocolate</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #00ff00;font-size: 1.2em;">and the soon to be released (that's why I worte 6 books) Lucky Star!!!</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #00ff00;font-size: 1.2em;">2. Shojo Manga (ie: Fushigi Yugi) should be read by every single teen girl in England. Enough said.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: 1.2em;">So, um,</span><span style="color: #00ff00;"> </span><span style="font-size: 1.2em;">that's it!! Byeeee!! ;)</span></p></div>
