Brenda in MA Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 I don't have a suggestion for a lit guide, but be sure not to miss the film version with Gregory Peck. I was able to borrow it from the library. Brenda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MamaT Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 We used glencoe, as the above poster suggested. I agree - don't miss the movie with Gregory Peck. It is one of our favorites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's quite true to the book, unlike many movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ereks mom Posted March 8, 2009 Author Share Posted March 8, 2009 I tried the links provided on this website and found that most of them do not work -- "page not found", etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie in MN Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 I tried the links provided on this website and found that most of them do not work -- "page not found", etc. Not sure which you tried, but I was able to get both the Glencoe & Sparknotes to come up quickly. Glencoe is what we used, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori D. Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 I tried the links provided on this website and found that most of them do not work -- "page not found", etc. Glencoe Literature Guides = http://www.glencoe.com/sec/literature/litlibrary/ (just scroll down to the title and click on it) Sparknotes = http://www.sparknotes.com/lit/index_t.html (just scroll down to the title and click on it) And not an online guide, but the Garlic Press publisher guides and the Progeny Press guides are GREAT. You could all chip in to buy the one guide and use it together. Read a review and see samples at: Garlic Press guide to "To Kill a Mockingbird": http://www.rainbowresource.com/product/To+Kill+a+Mockingfird+Discovering+Literature+Teaching+Guide/001992/1236561464-1839992 Progeny Press guide to "To Kill a Mockingbird": http://www.rainbowresource.com/product/To+Kill+a+Mockingbird+Study+Guide/009315/1236561464-1839992 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yabusame Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Does anyone have similar links to Glencoe for the literature listed in TWEM? I'd love a study guide for each of the works found therein. I think it would make my understanding of each book much greater (especially Don Quixote). Hopeful, Yabusame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
