I'm going to make this short and sweet:
Read The Giver by Lois Lowry to your class. I mean it... the kids are hanging on her every word and they are absolutely in love with it! It's so refreshing for a class to BEG you to keep reading.. and secretly you're dying to because it's so good!
With the movie coming out this year, it's going to be one of the "hot" books. Think Hunger Games meets Divergent and you've got the premise of the story.
I'm telling you, it's a winner!!!!
I took one of my classes to see the play one year. They loved it.
