This middle-of-the-pack offering is suitable for high schools needing more dystopian adventures.
Our Mockingbird
Well filmed and watchable, with a predictable story arc. Consider where school budgets are adequate to cover the cost.
Bright Smoke, Cold Fire
An atmospheric tale that pits loyalty to kin against loyalty to self and loyalty to loved ones, this work will appeal to the author's fans and those who can't get enough of fantastical retellings.

Suitable for classes studying the war in Syria, the refugee crisis in the Middle East and in Europe, and the wide-ranging effect any conflict has on the general population.

An uplifting, nonpreachy choice for discussions of dignity, empathy, and acceptance for any high school class.
