Call me old fashioned, but I loved Pearl Buck's "Imperial Women" when I was
that age, or are you looking for more modern stuff...

> Hello Calibers,
>
> I have a 10 grade honors teacher who is in need of a list of books for her
class. The focus of their lesson is human rights worldwide (human
trafficking, women's rights, etc). She would like her students to read
either fiction or biographies that are interesting related to that subject.
I thought of A Long Way Gone and Sold by Patricia McCormick. I am hoping
that you might know of a few more.
