Synopsis

There are plenty of cheaper Mockingbird guides out there; so why choose this one? (1) It's substantial, with more than 250 pages filled with all of the features that make Craig’s guides thorough, practical, and insightful: chapter summaries, commentary, and ready-to-copy exploratory questions, quizzes, tests, vocabulary, literary activities, projects and writing ideas, research, and much more. (2) It contains a play adaptation of the trial scenes, with intervening critical thinking questions students can use to lead the class in presentations and interpretive discussions. (3) It was published in August of 2015, and that means it includes activities that incorporate Lee’s second novel, Go Set a Watchman, and recent events across the United States, from Ferguson, Missouri to Charleston, South Carolina and New York City. With Craig's guide, teachers will have even more reason to taut Lee’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel for being as relevant today as it was in the years immediately following its publication in 1960.
