I think that the Sisters Grimm series should be made into a movie and have a spot on the Stacks site.

The Clique books are great but they didn't stay true to the books! The movie was great but they left out tons of parts. If I were the drectior I would stay true to the books and It would star Me and Ashely Tisdale!!!!!!!!!!

The 39 Clues is the best book series ever! It is only right that it be made into a movie.
Comment #45 | Posted by: Eddy on March 08, 2009 at 09:03 AM
I think the On the Run + Kidnapped books by Gordon Korman should become a movie. I loved the books + I've read them about 10 times each, and I think they would make a GREAT MOVIE
