This year our reading program included reading an oldie/classic selection. My freshman son was reading Of Mice and Men for his Comm Arts class. Since I read everything he does, this was a perfect fit! Or was it? I have to admit that I did not enjoy this book when I read it as a young teen. News flash: I still don't. My co-workers and I discussed whether or not a book had to be depressing to be a classic. That being said, this is the story of George and Lenny, two drifter ranch hands, and their dream of building a better life for themselves.
