Product Description

The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls is now a movie that is true to the story but has some significant creative differences from the book. This is the perfect opportunity for students to do a compare/contrast and analyze the choices between print and film mediums.

The Glass Castle is a favorite of my students, and the movie will be a great addition! Common-core aligned to ELA RL.7 for grades 8-12.
