The Great Gatsby
by
"Why wouldn't this book be taught in every classroom? This, next to Shakespeare, is what classic literature is about. It id chalked full with foreshadowing, double meanings, and other literary devices."

To Kill a Mockingbird
by
"This story tells in the mind of a littler girl. Having another perspective is a wonderful way for children to read in other mediums, then the hero's minds they always read in."

Of Mice and Men
by
"Even though this is the most ruined book, it still has great value. Children can learn a lot about foreshadowing, and the ending really has good substance."

A Midsummer Night’s Dream
by
"I think Shakespeare should be taught in every English class. Yes, it's sometimes hard, but children need a challenge every once in awhile. I would like to have my students act out the play. This gets everyone involved, and it can also be lighthearted and fun."

The Importance of Being Earnest
by
"This is a great satirical play. I think this would be a great choice to show children play on words."
