|  | The School Story by Andrew Clements, Brian Selznick
Twelve-year-old Natalie has written a book--a book her best friend Zoe and her English teacher think is good enough to be published. This shouldn't be a problem for Natalie because her mother is an editor at a children's publishing house. However, Natalie wants the book published, if it is to be published, on its own merits--not just because she happens to be the daughter of an editor. Then Zoe comes up with a plan--they'll submit the book under a pseudonym and Zoe will pretend to be Natalie's literary agent. Interwoven within this story about Zoe and Natalie is the plot of Natalie's book--a novel about a girl who gets caught cheating in school and is defended by her loving father--a story which is especially close to Natalie's heart as her own father recently died.

 | Max Havelaar by D. H. Lawrence, E. M. Beekman, R. P. Meijer, Roy Edwards, Multatuli
One of the most forceful indictments of colonialism ever written, MAX HAVELAAR 'sent a shiver' through the Dutch nation when it was first published in 1860 and, even after 120 years, it is still capable of arousing strong emotions. It tells the story of a young civil servant in the colonial administration who, in 1856, clashed head-on with his government when he tried to force them to recognize the barbarity and corruption rife in the Dutch colony of Java. Yet MAX HAVELAAR is more than a polemical tract or autobiographical novel. Its innovative style, superb characterization and, above all, its vitality and pungent satire make it a powerful literary work in its own right. As D.H. Lawrence wrote of it, 'The great dynamic force in and Gogol and in Mark Twain, hate, a passionate honorable hate...' AUTHOR: D. H. Lawrence, E. M. Beekman, R. P. Meijer, Roy Edwards, Multatuli
