I still need to read quite a few of them. I got Golden Boy on my reading pile right now and I'm looking forward to it. <br /><br />p.s. To answer your question of Stead books working in my high school, I am not sure. I don't have in my collection and it doesn't seem like it would be popular with my students. I think her latest would work since it is contemporary and much more straightforward.
