The Great Santini
Pat Conroy

3 sets                                             Reading Level 2

       
Step into the powerhouse life of Bull Meecham.  He's all Marine -- fighter pilot, king of the clouds, and absolute ruler of his family.  Lillian is his wife -- beautiful, southern-bred, with a core of velvet steel.  Without her cool head, her kids would be in real trouble.  Ben is the oldest, a born athlete whose best never satisfies the big man.  Ben's got to stand up, even fight back, against a father who doesn't give in -- not to his men, not to his wife, and certainly not to his son.
