This movie is based on a great book...I wasn't sure the movie would do it justice, but it was great. It portrayed the events that happened in the book and the characters in the book were also greatly portrayed. If you've read the book, I would recommend watching this movie...even if you haven't read the book, it's a good movie. It's based on a true story so some parts are sad and hard to watch, but you'll soon come to appreciate the love this teacher is capable of giving. The world needs more people like her!
