*I have not yet taught this book. I may be out of time in the spring for yet another book, but I was thinking I could show the movie and have students do a close reading (I have about 30 books) on a few key parts. It fits nicely with our typical American Dream theme for second semester. Debating between this and A Raisin in the Sun… Thoughts?
