Patricia MacLachlan, author of the best-selling and award-winning 1985 children’s book Sarah, Plain and Tall and its sequels that were turned into three popular early 1990s Hallmark Hall of Fame TV-movies starring Glenn Close, died March 31 at her home in Williamsburg, Mass. She was 84.

It has never been easier to be a bookworm. Yes, I have two overflowing bookshelves in my apartment, but I have a Kindle and installed iBooks on my iPhone. When all else fails, I have audiobooks of everything from Chronicles of Narnia to Dune.
Even better, Hollywood is churning out book adaptations like nobody’s business. It’s not just for Twilighters who put up with the Twihards or the kids who run around their neighborhood shouting, “Expelliarmus!” We recently saw The Invention of Hugo Cabret turned from the world’s longest picture book into a captivating film. Those of us who have loved Ender Wiggins for years are finally going to see him on the big screen.
So what should be next? Let’s explore 10 books that would make movie magic.
