One of my students ( male with a reputation for disrupting) with a Lexile of 710 just finished "Monster" by Frank Peretti. My copy is hardcover and 500 pages long...and definitely above 710. He could only read a few pages a day, but he carried it with him all the time and other teachers would see him reading when he finished work. I've heard him talking to other students about what he was reading, so I know he was understanding it.
Just wanted to share!
