My seventeen-year-old and I are currently reading The House of the Seven Gables by Nathaniel Hawthorne. The following books proved helpful to build background about Hawthorne and his writings (all books are borrowed from the library)-
A Student's Guide to Nathaniel Hawthorne by Mary Ann L. Dorio (*Highly recommend. I found this one the most helpful and student-friendly)
Cliffs Notes on Hawthorne's The House of the Seven Gables-
Hawthorne Tales and Sketches
Novel Houses- Twenty Famous Fictional Dwellings by Christina Hardyment (includes chapters about Mansfield Park, Waverly, Wuthering Heights, The House of Seven Gables, Bleak House, Uncle Tom's Cabin, Sherlock Holmes, Cold Comfort Farm, The Great Gatsby, Rebecca, I Capture the Castle, The Hobbit & The Lord of the Rings,and Harry Potter. . . to name a few)-
I already posted a review about this picture book- The Great Stone Face retold by Gary D. Schmidt-
