FYI: The White Mountains is a trilogy (also called the Tripods Trilogy after the alian vehicles used in the text). The Books in the Trilogy are The White Mountains, The City of Gold and Lead, and The Pool of Fire.
Last time I went to the library I saw them in the juvinile literature department, so I'm guessing the book is more geared toward young adults.But s'okay, I found the series quite enjoyable when I was 13, almost as much as I do now.
Flatland, by Edwin Abbott, is ESSENTIAL but quite dull. I read it on my own as a teen, but I don't believe it would have keep me interested @ 13. FLATLAND IS ONLINE http://eldred.ne.mediaone.net/eaa/FL.HTM
