Good luck!  We do Cosi in year 11, the kids really enjoy it; year after year.  The character of Doug appeals to a lot of the boys, they love reading 'him'.

Thanks Lyle. We are scratching around to come up with a text for Year 11 English. I'm staggered that people can reject 'The Reader' having never read it. Also, considering two of the other texts on our Year 11 course, it is incomprehensible that we not even consider 'The Reader'. The adult content of those scenes is a consideration, but when you acknowledge all of the positives about the book, it should not be an obstacle. Thanks for your reply. I've put on my flak-jacket, loaded my semi-automatic and grabbed my copy of 'The Reader' off my desk. Back to the battle!
