[R3librarians] Books to movies

[Cindy Franklin]

Librarians,

Walden Media, the company that brought us the
movie version of Holes and The
Chronicles of Narnia, are at it again!

You'll want
to make sure you've got multiple copies of these three books, due for
movie releases this calendar year:

    Hoot by Carl Hiaasen.  Reading Lvl
5.2.  
This book is listed as a YA title, but I have a 3rd
grade G/T friend who is currently enjoying it quite a lot!  I'm
going to read it when he's finished with it.

Information about the upcoming movie, scheduled for release
in May:

(be sure to see lesson plan ideas)

(Another
recent title by Carl Hiaasen:  Flush,
 Reading Lvl 5.9)

    How to Eat Fried Worms by Thomas
Rockwell.  Reading Lvl 4.2

the upcoming movie, scheduled for release in August:

Fried Worms-lovers. Check it out in "Teaching
Tools.")

Reading Lvl 4.4

movie, scheduled for release in December:
