Did you know that so many of the movies you see were really books first?? Sometimes movies are made into books, too. Here is a list of books that were made into movies for 2008. Personally, I like to read the book first and let myself imagine the story first...and then go see the movie. Some of these movies are already out...but that doesn't mean you can't still read the book first and then go check out the movies. Also, did you know that you can check out movies at the library? How cool is that? They have VHS or videos, and they also have DVDs. The best part? Totally FREE! Just remember to return them on time, sometimes you can't check them out for as long as books. Let me know how you thought the movie compared to the book!!
