The Secret Life of Bees

I'm currently reading this wonderful book, The Secret Life of Bees. I'll admit that I'm not very far into it yet but already in the first ten pages I've discovered a very doable DI. I photocopied the pages and they're available to whomever would like them. This cutting is about a young girl who witnesses a horrible fight between her parents in which her mom takes out a gun. The gun drops to the ground, and the girl, unsure of what's going on, picks up the gun and accidentally shoots her mother.

I imagine there are more DI cuttings hidden somewhere in this gem of a book, if anyone else wants to give it a shot. Also, it's now a box office film, meaning that it would be received well by lay judges who have seen the movie.

If you do DI or DUO, I recommend reading as many of these kinds of books as possible! They are great resources for material!
