#6 is really hard, so I will give a few extra hints. It gave one actor his start and the person saying the quote has the curious name of Magnet.
#2 is King Soloman's Mines
#3 is Ruth by Elizabeth Gaskell
#4 I'm guessing that 4 is Confessions by Augustine, but I really have very little idea.
#7 is Streams to the River, River to the Sea
#9 is How Green was my Valley
#6 is really really hard.
Good job, Miss Sarah!
All right. Come on, Noah, and guess #6 and #5!
Hee hee...
Magnet? Huh?
I think 5 is A Cricket in Times Square? Maybe?
Is #6 maybe The Count of Monte Cristo?
Yes, Noah, you are right. Sorry B Fam, it's not Count of Monte Cristo.
Another hint for #6: they are not being let out of jail, but they are being held somewhere...
The only book I know of with a person named (or nick named) Magnet in it is The Pathfinder. Is that it?
Lamb Family, I am afraid that the book isn't Pathfinder. The book is a newer book, written by Louis Sachar. That should give the answer away.
