This association, though almost unconscious, has changed the educational landscape, particularly as it pertains to book-to-film adaptations. In the family genre alone, 73 book-to-film titles have come out since 1982 grossing over $7,526,815,755 dollars cumulatively (“Family-Children's Book Adaptation,” 2013, 1). Harry Potter and its subsequent sequels have each grossed upwards of $900,00,000 each with historical opening weekends that are unparalleled in worldwide and international box office (“All Time Box Office Records,” 2013, 1).
