**** ETNI on the web http://www.etni.org.il http://www.etni.org **** Dear Sharon, Two years ago I taught "Girl With a Pearl Earring" to my yod bet 5-point class, and it was very successful. It's a "coming of age" novel which explores issues of evolving identity, class and gender. Needless to say, the evocative, yet simple language makes it accessible. AND---now, there's the movie!
