yes. we worked extensively on this two years ago. (we used to homeschool.) i also took him to a live theatrical performance of it in Atlanta as part of that study.

I reread it about a year ago. What a wonderful book.

already viewed! he's a history/WWII buff so he's seen most of those types of films. also in the queue is Der Untergang which we've been trying to track down for awhile. long wait on that one, though, so we may not have it during this 6 week experiment.

yes, it is. my son has been particularly taken by the fact that this is Harper Lee's only book and that she is very much a recluse.
