Look at all these comments Boo Radley received in 4 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*
I know it’s cheesy, but I love that people love him that much!
*The excessive use of exclamatory marks was necessary.

“To Kill a Mockingbird” - Movie Theme
by Elmer Bernstein
We are closing Part 1 of the novel this week in my PreAP classes and will soon move on to the trial. Before I know it, it will all be over… In the last two years, this book has stolen my heart in so many ways and certainly solidified its place as my favorite book to teach, with Lord of the Flies making a close second.
I really love this theme. I played a portion of it for one of my on level classes today while they were finishing up their journals. Of my two on level classes, they get the most into the story and actually laugh out loud when things happen to Scout. They think that it’s so cool that we’ll watch the film after we’re finished reading. Little do they know how much I hope and pray that they’ll all fall in love with Gregory Peck and black and white movies.
