Harry & more -- movies and reading
Largely due to my son's prodding, our family actually went to see the film, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, on the day it opened. Though it was exciting and fast-paced, my son felt let down because so much from the book was left out or adapted for the movie version.
My son, of course, had to reread ...Phoenix (Scholastic) before seeing the film, so the book was very fresh to him. Still, his position is that of several movie critics .
But what about using film as book bait especially during the summer? Or making connections between movies, television shows, and reading?
Deciding which TV program or movie involves making choices and reading (e.g., newspapers, TV show guides, and reviews). Doing this with your kids can start a fine shared experience, leading them back to the world of books.
