Lloyd Alexander's "The Black Cauldron": A Discussion Guide

The purpose of this book is educational. I enjoy reading Lloyd Alexander’s "The Black Cauldron," and I believe that it is an excellent book for children (and for adults such as myself) to read.

This book contains many questions about Lloyd Alexander’s "The Black Cauldron" and their answers. I hope that teachers of children will find it useful as a guide for discussions. It can also be used for short writing assignments. Students can answer selected questions from this little guide orally or in one or more paragraphs.

I hope to encourage teachers to teach Lloyd Alexander’s "The Black Cauldron," and I hope to lessen the time needed for teachers to prepare to teach this book.
