Rachel Heller
Reading and going to the movies are two enjoyable past times. I enjoy going to movies that are based on books. In fact, I have a group of friends who go to movies based on books with me. There are always books that should be made into movies. Therefore, here are five books that are ready for their close up.

How to Teach Physics to Your Dog
This non-fiction would be great as a movie. This is because it teaches physics in a way that everyone can understand. This science books shows us physics through the eyes of a dog. This book would make a great movie because I love dog stories and I love science.

A Vintage Affair
This fiction book takes place in the world of fashion. Phoebe Swift opens her own vintage clothing shop in London. She loves fashion; however, two suitors, a difficult mom, and a mysterious woman make her venture hard. This book would make a good movie because it would be a chick flick. It would also be good because it takes place in London. Kate Winslett could play the lead character. This movie could follow in the footsteps of another book about the fashion industry that became a movie. The other book is The Devil Wears Prada.

Born Standing Up
This non-fiction book is about Steve Martin's early life. It also tells about his early days as a a stand up comic and an amateur magician at Disneyland. This book would make a great movie because I am a big Steve Martin fan. Also, it would be interesting to see a different side of Steve Martin.

The Guernsey Literary Potato Peel Pie Society
This might sound crazy; however, this fiction book is a happy Holocaust book. It takes place right after the Holocaust and it involves a group of people who are brought together by books. This book would make a great movie because it shows the healing power of books. This book also shows the strength of friendship. this book is a series of letters; therefore, it would be fun seeing how movie-makers put the movie together.

Flawless
This non-fiction tells the story of the biggest diamond heist in history. This story takes place in Belgium. This book would make a good movie because it is a thriller and movie goers always enjoy a good thriller. They will also enjoy it because it will be an international thriller. In addition, movie about diamonds are exciting.

Movies are reading are great. Therefore, it stands to reason that movies based on books would be enjoyable. Therefore. I have suggested five books that are ready for the silver screen. Source: www.barnesandnoble.com
