Amazon or ebay......... they usually have everything.

It's not a book; It's a short story.

How can you classify it as a short story? The book upon which everything is bases is Flowers for Algernon, which is a full length book.

Flowers for Algernon is a novel by Daniel Keyes. I am currently teaching it to my grade 11's and was wondering if anyone knows where to get a hold of this version of the movie?

Actually, it began as a short story, but it was in such high demand that it was elongated and turned into a novel.

I believe this was a Hallmark Presents movie. I found this link online. It may take a lot of searching, and some e-mails to the channel, but maybe...? :-)

I'm in 8th grade also... we're probably reading from the same Literature book. I just finished the story today. We're watching the movie in English class. I don't want to finish the movie because I know the ending is really sad.
