What's a good book for a book report?

Before I recommend a couple, you need to examine what interests you. Dont write a book report because someone says so or you found great reviews on the internet. You need to ask yourself "What sort of fiction I like?"\n\nAs for fantasy try any book by Terry Pratchett.\nWant something recent how about the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. Since most people watched the movie, reading the book and making a possible comparison with the movie could be impressive.\n\nWant to try classic novels. Go with the tried and true Tom Sawyer, any of the Sherlock Holmes mysteries, any Agatha Cristie book (if you are into solving crimes).\n\nFeeling academic? Try some literature books. Lord of the Flies, impress the teacher and write about a Shakespeare play..Romeo and Juliet, The Merchant of Venice (those ones arent too bad)\n\nMy point is write on what you enjoyed reading or would enjoy reading. Don't let the size of the book discourage you. Trust me, if the book interests you, you won;t put it down until you have read the last word on the very last page.

Good but a bit outdated. \n\nWinning with People by J. Maxwell is good.  Making Rain by A. Sobel is good too.

You can likely find a summary on amazon.com.  Just put in the book title and/or author -- the publisher's summary should be near the bottom of the page.

Not sure what you're looking for.\n\nMortimer Adler and Charles van Doren wrote a good book\n\n   "How to Read a Book".  \n\nDefinitely worth the effort even if it's not quite what you were looking for.

I would enjoy reading a really really good book.  If the book is crappy, then by all means I'd do something different.

Try Scholastic, Lakeshore, or Simon and Shulster. They do provide reviews of their books, and you can also get reviews of books from local teacher organizations or the public library.

Biographies are always good.\n\nI know more about teen books, so...\n\nThere's one called "In My Hands" by Irene Gut Opdyke about a woman in Poland during World War Two who helps Jews hide while working for the Nazis.  This is a great book.\n\nGary Paulsen wrote a book called "My Life in Dog Years" about his sled dogs.\n\nI think Gary Soto wrote most of his novels based on true happenings while he was growing up.\n\nThen there are all the books under "Anonymous" in the teen section like "Go Ask Alice."\n\nFor slightly younger kids (8-12) Jean Craighead George wrote "The Tarantula in My Purse" about all the weird pets she's had.\n\n"Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes" is non-fic, and a Newberry winner.\n\nAll of the Little House on the Prairie books are technically non-fiction (since they happened to Laura Ingalls Wilder).\n\nThere are also Holocaust books for middle readers, like "I Have Lived a Thousand Years" and "Four Perfect Pebbles."\n\nLois Lenski wrote one called, "Indian Captive: The Life of Mary Jemison" that's pretty good.\n\n"Behind Rebel Lines" is a book about a woman who was a field nurse in the Civil War and became a spy.  It's by Seymour Reit.\n \nFor younger kids, there are a bunch of Step Into Reading books that have historical/adventure stories.  Places like Borders ought to have them all laid out.  You can also do Amazon searches, or browse non-fiction for different ages (and they already have reviews written out).
