I really don't know why I had to read [b:The Grapes of Wrath 4395 The Grapes of Wrath John Steinbeck http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1309212810s/4395.jpg 2931549] in high school but not this one. If I had read this one first, I would have been more excited to read more Steinbeck. I suppose school is meant to have us read books that we will need help with and Grapes definitely requires more supervision than this.I listened to Of Mice and Men on playaway. It was masterfully narrated by Gary Sinise (always Lieutenant Dan to me) and I think I enjoyed it more because of his performance. Even so, the story itself is simple and entertaining. Readers can make quick work of it due to its brevity. Highly recommended.
