Pretty brutal! There's also a good short "movie" video of it, and it follows the story so very closely. Here is a link to it, in its entirety, on Youtube. Or you might be able to find it on Netflix, or perhaps you school has resources for videos. If you have time for it with your kids, and don't mind using videos occasionally, this is a good one. The narrator uses much text from the story.<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBB06RLmCcUM.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09205619221345704689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6918710928117815584.post-111826924062779942013-11-18T05:26:03.221-08:002013-11-18T05:26:03.221-08:00I would love to find some of those clothes pins! ...I would love to find some of those clothes pins!

I have a friend who was born in England and after she married she moved here. She told me that in England, they joke that they sell their used tea bags to Lipton for the Americans to use for tea. :) I laugh about that all of the time.
