Everyone should read this book, lives up to the tradition of Orwell.
Gradesaver notes are great, they show you what one missed [not too much!!]when one reads the book; the test was good too.
I read this book in the 8th grade and am about to start 12th grade but Farenheit 451 still reigns as one of my favorite books. The language is simple, the plot never drags on, and the ending is great. Every character is important; the husband the investigator, the wife the symbol of all the other conformist (with a twist) and the dog...
*Just a note to all young readers, read anything you want. Don't feel restricted by age, material, what have you. The point of this book is that no one person can say that this is what is appropriate for you, you have to decide that for yourself. When you are in class, read what the teacher gives you but don't limit yourself to only that. Check out the library and bookstores and find what interests you. Plus if you like this book and are into sci-fi (even if you aren't) read Brave New World.
Gradesaver is a lifesaver!
I agree, a great read.

maybe your teacher didn't point out all the really good stuff and connect it to our society today...
I love how all the connections fit into today's technology even though Bradbury wrote it decades ago.
I love how all the connections fit into today's technology even though Bradbury wrote it decades ago. Like the interactive TV being similar to reality shows and online games. The Seashells being like Ipods, or bluetooth connected to our ears......Amazing on bradbury's end. He's brilliant and ahead of his time.
