This novel is most appropriate for students 13+. The competition in the book, (the "Hunger Games") is one in which children are placed in an arena and kill one another until only the victor remains. Some of the descriptions are rather graphic. There is also a great deal of other sensitive material, including loss of relatives, starvation, torture, war, etc. A full parental guide can be found here:
