I was talking with a couple folks after our movie night on Wednesday about all the great teen novels that have been turned into books. We've decided to devote our midweek movie series, which is every third Wednesday at 6 PM in Teen Central, to YA books to movies for at least the next six months. Next month, during Teen Read Week, we're showing a movie based on a book by Rachel Cohn and David Leviathan. Can you guess the title? If you want to have your own books to movies festival or just read some great books that have been made into movies, check out the list below.
Sapphire's Push (Precious)
Cornelia Funke's Inkheart
C.S. Lewis' Prince Caspian
C.S. Lewis' The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe
