The Giver: Novel and Movie Comparison
While watching a movie based on a book I have found it is beneficial for students to critically view the movie. This resource includes a Google doc (and PDF as a print resource) to help your students not only compare and contrast the movie with the book, but also infer why the director and writers changed the novel so much.In Lois Lowry’s Newbery Acceptance Speech she implied The Giver would never be made into a movie. Two decades later it was adapted for a movie, though.
