I am sure that would make people want to read more. Unlike a lot of the stuff that is actually peddled in school.
Didn't have to read it though, and don't know why the small, hardback book with a man in swashbuckler clothing and a mustache on the cover attracted me. I'm finally working through the Count of Monte Cristo, which is a really enjoyable read, as well .
What books should students be forced to read in school?

I honestly don't remember being assigned any books to read in elementary school.

Not many - they should be made to read, yes, but why not let them choose themselves?

Beverly Cleary should be good for that age. She did Mouse and the Motorcycle.

I don't think forcing books on kids is the way to get them to enjoy reading
