The Literature Made Easy Series is more than just plot summaries. Each book describes a classic novel and drama by explaining themes, elaborating on characters, and discussing each author's unique literary style, use of language, and point of view. Extensive illustrations and imaginative, enlightening use of graphics help to make each book in this series livelier, easier, and more fun to use than ordinary literature plot summaries. An unusual feature, "Mind Map" is a diagram that summarizes and interrelates the most important details that students need to understand about a given work. Appropriate for middle and high school students.
To anyone looking over this list: Reread this book! I'm sure you have fond memories of the first time you read it, but it, as well as any American novel, stands the rereading test. Atticus' quiet, calm heroism is an inspiration to behold. Damn, it's a good book.
