My class had to read it, nobody in my class liked it XD And we all gave it around 0-3 stars, I gave 1/2 star

Agreed. Bird kids in disguise are more interesting than bird kid superstars who preach about protecting nature. I like and respect nature, by the way.
I think The Voyage of the Dawn Treader and The Horse and His Boy were the best books. Maybe The Magician's Nephew, too. All the others were good, but I didn't like them quite as much.
What can I say? It's a good book.

Yup. I wish they hadn't become worldwide known superstars, but the books are still decent. I'm almost done reading Nevermore
And same here nature rules

If you want to watch a movie based on a book, like The Hobbit or Tuck Everlasting, etc. etc., I think it's better to read the book before the movie. At the very least things will be explained that you may not know the reason behind from the movie. You can enjoy the movie without reading the book, of course, but a book has so much more than can be put into a movie just because of the time limitations. (How many books can you read in only 2 hours?) And don't get me started on the director's interpretations (like changing the main character from a boy into a girl, or even altering scenes, etc.). Books are always better.

In my opinion, sometimes the book is better and sometimes the movie is. It all depends. Normally what you see or read first is the one you will like better just because that was your first impression. Not always though. Like i saw the first 3 Love comes softly movies, but after I read that series I hated the movies and how much they changed it. Sometimes they are both good and you almost consider them as two completely different stories, for me that was Ella Enchanted they were so different they were both good. sometimes the movie is better than the book, Swiss family robinson. Grew up watching the movie so the book was almost a shock because Roberta and Fritz didn't fall in love(from what i can remember). The best book/movie is Lord of the Rings. they did amazing on the movie and kept it fairly close to the book.
