The Texas Lone Star 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. Each book on the list has been
favorably reviewed for grades 6, 7, or 8 in a professional
review source.
