An oldie--but one of my favs for this age: Maniac Magee by Spinelli. The best mysterious boy hero.

ACTIVITY: Also . . . bring in a huge knot you've impossibly tied into a bundle and onto a broomstick or other pole you can hand across the library or from a table and let the boys work cooperatively on untying it. (Or several.)
