[quote=Anonymous]SO much amazing middle grade historical fiction out there!!! Two authors I would highly recommend: Carolyn Reeder and Avi. Reeder's books are meticulously researched but perfectly centered in a middle grade mindset, with characters aged 10-14. Bonus if you live in Virginia, as almost all her books are set there. I especially love "Across the Lines" and "Shades of Grey", both with male protagonists set in Virginia during the Civil War. "Captain Kate" is wonderful, set on the C&O Canal. Basically anything she has worsen is phenomenal. (BTW, I just Googled for one of her titles and I'm bereft to find that she died in 2012!) "Rifles for Watie", also set during the Civil War, was a huge hit with my 7th graders when I used to teach. For the life of me I can't recall the author.[/quote]
