"LIVING LITERATURE is a creative, exciting response to this literacy crisis..."

"Our English teachers are excited by this opportunity because we all realize the value of this visual and aural presentation as a means of drawing our students deeper into their study of literature."

"It helps engage students, rids them of passivity and 're-injects' drama in our standards-based approach....

Helps in role-playing and value building through immersing [students] in a variety of character education contexts."
"It asks students to use more of their imagination while reading...to visualize in new ways."

"I teach Art...what a nice way to put language/narrative to an image."

"We often read about the effects of television on children and we complain about how our students no longer read with pleasure or understanding."

"To read it with others helped to achieve different perspectives and points of view. To think of multi-dimensional (movement, action, multiples voices) characteristic of a piece of literature was amazing!"
