This is a great site for English teachers, librarians and anyone who loves classic literature. The site is true to its name, it gives 60 second recaps of classic novels. Topics include theme, plot, motifs, symbolism and character overviews. They also provide little trailers for the book. A great way to get young people (or old) excited about what they are going to read and then use it at the end to review the information. This site launched on September 14, 2009 and their library is already pretty impressive. Another nice feature, you can request a book for them to recap if it is not in their library. All around a great resource and it is a lot of fun. Defiantly give this one a look.
