This forum was where, the spring of 2007, high school students chose one book and wrote about it as they were reading. We've kept the forum up for two reasons: What students wrote is interesting and because it offers you a model for our new book forum -- the GMBA Forum. (By the way, here's the list of books for last year's forum.)
Have fun.
