What is the difference between the novel Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry and the movie Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry?
Actually, they are pretty close when it comes to novel vs movie, but if you think that you only need to watch the movie to understand the novel you are wrong. In the book you get what the girl is feeling and thinking and you don't get that in the movie. When the night riders come she expresses her fears about the event, but the movie doesn't show that you to as well as the book. My favorite part in the book is when the kids dig the hole in the road for the school bus. Read the book it is better.
If however you want to note the differences, they are minor. One difference is that in the movie, Lillian Jean, Jeremy, R.W., and Melvin are Kaleb Wallace's children. In the book, they are the children of Charlie Simms. Another difference is that when Stacey gives his coat away to T.J. that Uncle Hammer gave him, in the book Uncle Hammer scolds him. In the movie, he is scolded by his father. Also, in the movie, Mr. Berry dies as a result of being burned by the Wallaces. In the book, Mr. Berry is severely burned and can barely move, but still alive. Additionally, in the book, T.J. gets Mama fired at the end. It happens toward the beginning of the movie. The book also shows that when Mr. Morrison goes to stop Uncle Hammer from approaching Mr. Simms about knocking Cassie in the street, Stacey is not with them, he is by the fire reading. However, in the movie Stacey goes with them to Mr. Wallace (not Simms). When the children say that they want Uncle Hammer to beat Mr. Simms up in the book, they are sent to bed early. When they say in the movie that they want Uncle Hammer to beat up Mr. Wallace, they are scolded and sit silently around the table.
These are just a few differences, why not read the book and watch the movie. It will be better. Besides . . . I'm not telling you the rest of the differences ;) only one way to find out. (Hint, hint, hint)
The main difference between the novel "Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry" and the movie adaptation is the depth and detail that the novel can provide in terms of character development, setting descriptions, and internal thoughts of the characters. The movie may have condensed or changed certain elements to fit the medium and runtime constraints, potentially resulting in a loss of nuance and complexity from the original novel.

well in the novel Will is illustrated in a dispicable way. Hornby actually makes the reader hate him at the start but in the movie, because of his good looks and humour, we actually like him. Also in the book we think of Fiona as being pretty but in the movie she is actually very ugly and unpresentable.
