The SODAH Kids (and sometimes their parents, too) enjoy reading books. Sometimes they read books that deal with issues they are facing, sometimes they read books for school assignments and sometimes they read just for fun.

This month, we have some good news for fans of the book series Twilight.

Good News for Twilight Fans: Movie Version Coming!

Good news Twilight fans. You can purchase Breaking Dawn, book number four in the series by Stephenie Meyer, at Amazon.com. However, it will not be delivered until 8/2/08.

Another piece of good news is that Twilight the movie based on book number one in the series, is expected to be out in theaters December 12, 2008. It is currently being filmed at Madison High School in Portland, Oregon. Soon we will be able to see Edward and Bella on the big screen!

The series has now sold more than 5.5 million books in the United States and has been translated into 20 languages published in 34 countries. Preteens and teens make up the majority of Ms. Meyer's slightly fanatical fan base, although I am looking forward to the next book, too!

In the new movie, Robert Pattinson plays Edward, the 180-year old vampire stuck in a 17-year-old body. You may recognize Mr. Pattinson, as he played Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. His co-star is Kristen Stewart.
