"Me and Earl and the Dying Girl"



"Me and Earl and the Dying Girl" is perhaps an even funnier version of the "other" book about a teenager with cancer. This book definitely carries an "R" rating for language. 

Themes to explore would be friendship, legacies, and character change. 

Extension projects could be students creating their own films, like Greg and Earl, visiting cancer patients in a local hospital, and practicing telling those around them what they appreciate (rather than having to wait for a eulogy). Students can also create their own movie trailer for the book.
