Journey to Topaz - Yoshiko Uchida
Journey to Topaz is a novel about a Japanese-American girl named Yuki who is interned along with her family during World War II. I read this book out loud to my class of fifth graders.
Adventures of Sherlock Holmes - Arthur Conan Doyle
This was Arthur Conan Doyle's first collection of Sherlock Holmes stories. Notice that the title does not have the word "the" in it.
I'm Not Scared - Niccolo Ammaniti
This novel is about a boy and his friends growing up in a remote part of Italy during the late 1970s. It is a thriller, and, despite the title, I found it to be very scary.
Shenzhen: A Travelogue From China - Guy Delisle
From the author of Pyongyang and Burma Chronicles, this book is about when Guy Delisle spent some time in China working for an animation studio. It is the last of Delisle's books like this.
The Sign of Four - Arthur Conan Doyle
This is probably my favorite of the Sherlock Holmes novels (as opposed to the story collections). Notice that it only has one "the" in the title.
