book/movie By Amie

"From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler" - There are two versions of the movie. I like the more recent one with Lauren Bacall.

"Sign of the Beaver" - The movie version is called "Keeping the Promise."

"Shiloh"

"Matilda" - This is a great adaptation.

"Tuck Everlasting" - My fifth graders loved this, especially the girls!

"Anne of Green Gables" - Really long, but wonderful.

"The Indian in the Cupboard"

"Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" - The movie is called "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory."

"The Bridge to Terabithia"

"Summer of the Swans"

There are several more that I can't remember right now. I think the "Really Good Stuff" catalog/website has a good selection.
