The Watsons Go To Birmingham... The Movie!


So excited about this. If you have never read The Watsons Go To Birmingham-1963 by Christopher Paul Curtis, then you need to go pick it up from the pub. And if they don’t have it at the pub (because it tends to be on a lot of summer reading lists) then swing by your local bookstore and grab a copy. Its well worth the $7 you’ll pay for it.

And then after you’re finished reading it, set your dvr for the hallmark channel. That’s right. I said the Hallmark Channel. I honestly think a book/film like this could easily go to the big screen, but it was made for tv. Nonetheless, you should watch it.

You may be thinking “she didn’t tell me anything about the book!” Of course I didn’t! All you need to know is that I recommend it. 

And also you could watch this and find out for yourself…



And yes, that is Julius from Remember the Titans as the dad. And the mom is the voice of Tiana in Disney's The Princess and the Frog.
