What did we think of this Z Guide?
We like these guides. The Z Guides help watchers understand the story in a movie to a deeper level as well as helping watchers apply relevant portions to their lives. The activities are relevant, thought-provoking and fun. Having read and seen the movie of this story, I think the materials in the Z Guide are quite comprehensive and very helpful.
We enjoy the discussion questions and activities suggested in the Z Guides and may track down a few more. The Z Guides are quite reasonable in price for the content.
I'm not here to tell you about the movie, although the book and movie for this are excellent, just the Z Guide. **This story is definitely High School level due to content.** You really should get this one and check it out with your older children. I think you'll be pleased. Great job again Zeezok Publishing!
