Have you ever taken time to read it. Like so many books, the movie became crazily popular and many don't even know it was a book first. What is your favorite book that was brought to life in the movies? It is a special day because this is mine. Today we honor the classics with a 20% discount in the classics section!

BH87 Posted August 1, 2011 Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 That is Shelby's favorite movie! And she loves the ORIGINAL Willy Wonka movie the best too! Link to post Share on other sites
Blondiega1 Posted August 1, 2011 Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 I've read the book. It's very different from the movie. My favorite book as a kid was Where the Wild Things Are. I thought the movie was ok, but the book is so much better because you use your imagination. Link to post Share on other sites
+shopthebookworm Posted August 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 That is Shelby's favorite movie! And she loves the ORIGINAL Willy Wonka movie the best too! I agree with Shelby! Love the movie and book. Original Will Wonka was best as well. I have watched it more than 20 times, I am sure. I've read the book. It's very different from the movie. My favorite book as a kid was Where the Wild Things Are. I thought the movie was ok, but the book is so much better because you use your imagination. Movie ok, book awesome!!

copschick Posted August 1, 2011 Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 I have never read the book, but the movie is one of my all time favorites. I do know that Dorothy didn't wear Ruby slippers in the book, they were silver. Thank goodness they changed them to those phenomenal red ones. Although they would have been better had they been platform stilettos. Just sayin lol Link to post Share on other sites
