I have been a quiet participant on the list serve--my book arrived late--and am 
enjoying it immensely.  So many like-minded people together is pretty exciting. 
 I noticed Bill mentioned using Twilight Zone episodes which is something I 
have been wanting to do myself.  My question is which episodes have short story 
companion pieces?  I think this is a great way to get young readers hooked into 
thinking more deeply but have only found one episode for which there is an 
accompanying textual component--"The Most Dangerous Game."  Would love to know 
what you have in your treasure chest.  And to answer your question, my hope for 
them to take from the text is that we explored it so completely that it leaves 
them still thinking after putting it away because they are applying it to 
themselves and the world around them.  Thanks, Jean
