Cliffs Notes: Kingston's The Woman Warrior
By: Chua, Soon-Leng; Chua, Margaret Pho Choo

Cliffs Notes: Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse-Five
By: Smith, Dennis Stanton
Published by: Hungry Minds

Cliffs Notes: Lewis' Babbitt
By: Carey, Gary
Published by: Hungry Minds
Shooting arrows at American business and the ethic of self-advancement, Lewis gives us Babbitt, a social-climbing, hopelessly middle-class oaf. By skewering the borgeousie, Babbitt gives us social criticism and a new type of character that reappears in American arts and letters.

Cliffs Notes: Lipsyte's The Contender
By: Baldwin, Stanley P.
Published by: Cliffs Notes
A multicultural perennial favorite by Robert Lipsyte, The Contender is a moral tale that emphasizes the importance of the fight rather than the prize, the quality of the struggle over the outcome. Hence, becoming a contender is what Alfred Brooks learns to do as he literally fights young boxers and figuratively braves the inner struggle of peer pressure.

Cliffs Notes: London's The Call of the Wild & White Fang
By: Umland, Samuel J.
Published by: Cliffs Notes
These savage, poetic, and courageous tales of existence are told through the eyes of two different canines. Although on one level they are stories about four-legged animals, the lessons of life in domestic and wild circumstances speak to generations past, present, and to come. London's stories are American treasures of wilderness and the harsh realities of existence.

Jonas, the protagonist in Lois Lowry's novel The Giver , lives in what appears to be a safe, predictable, familiar community. Members of this utopia, which is void of disease, hunger, poverty, war, or lasting pain, have given up all emotions and memories of experience to attain Sameness and the illusion of social order.
