The Book Thief

After watching the video about The Book Thief, I really want to read it! I think that the director of this video made it extremely interesting by using dim lighting and candles. I have not read this, but it seems mysterious. Also, from the video, I gathered that it was about Nazis and World War II.

I think that this is a great way to entice our students to read books! If we show them videos, they may see the book in a different light and want to read it. Also, we could make our students create a trailor for a book they read. Then they could use new technology and integrate it with English.
