In our society, firemen put out fires and we are encouraged to read books. However, in the book's society, firemen start fires, burning the forbidden books. One fireman named Montag gets his mind turned around by a teenage girl explaining how little he knew of the world and how the illegal books he burned could help everyone, even him. His curiosity grows far too strong to control and steal the books one by one. This is recommended for ages 10 and older.
