What are your top ten living science books for the junior high years?

Which science books do you consider "must reads" by the end of eighth grade?

Thanks for your fresh ideas.

Merci, MacBeth!

I visit your trusted website often, but I needed to narrow it down a bit for my 8th grader. I'm happy to see that she's already read a few of these...because we've only got a few months left!
