online. If you prefer listening to reading, many novels are also available in audio format for purchase, rental, or even free
download. Try www.librivox.org, www.freeclassicaudiobooks.com, www.gutenberg.org, www.audiobooksforfree.com. To obtain
the film, try the public library, Blockbuster, or VisArt on 7th Street by Starbucks (704.343.3031). The reading, book reviews, and
project will count as test grades. Parent signature is required verifying the completion of this reading. Please fill out and return to
the Literature teacher the first week of school.
