Margin Notes

Each week, THE WEEK, invites authors to share six book titles they recommend reading. Students can use these book lists as mentor texts to select six books (or movies, games, songs, etc) they would like to recommend and write short descriptions of what makes them worthy of making the list. These lists are also great mentor texts of voice in short pieces of writing.

Here are some lists you might choose to use as mentor texts:
