Ali,
  I've used textmapping to do this. The kids use photocopies of the text, and highlight features they will need to create their script in different colors. They change colors for each character, stage directions, narration, etc.
   
  Go to Dave Middlebrook's site for more information about textmapping:

  Renee Goularte has some photos of her kids doing textmapping: http://www.share2learn.com/textmappingb.html

  I love this idea.
Would you be willing to share the procedure the kids go through to create 
their scripts from a book?

Thank you!
