TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD


This month's selection for Book to Movie Club is To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee.  Lee's novel won the Pulitzer Prize in 1961, and the movie starring Gregory Peck won 3 Oscars: Best Actor in a Leading Role, Best Writing/Screenplay Based on Material From Another Medium, and Best Art Direction.  It was also nominated for Best Picture!

And, as I am sure you are aware, Harper Lee's Go Set a Watchman is now available.
