Those seem like strange books for a summer reading list. Your son must be older than I was thinking.
Eat, Pray, Love is OK at best in my opinion and I can't see a kid plowing through it.
Mao is pretty good if you are a bio nut which I am. Does the poor child even know who Mao is??

Now I only need The Dharma Bums by Jack Kerouac

Cheapest Dharma Bums I could find.
I studied Kerouac in college. I think I was the first generation that was allowed to. And we had to fight a bit. I did a thesis on Allen Ginsberg. And my ex-husband was a Kerouac scholar.

Another thing is that many counties let you use any library in the county, so if a library in another town has the books, you can just get them at that branch.
I don't feel too sorry for Jorge. Everyone who goes to school has to learn things and do assignments they don't care about. It will broaden his horizons a bit, and honestly, reading about chocolate can't be that painful.
Eat, Pray, Love sounds fascinating to me. I see that it's being made into a movie with Julia Roberts. I'll have to check it out.
