[LM_NET] Reader's theatre scripts and copyright?

[Barb Engvall <macbarb@CHARTER.NET>]

What is the opinion, legality, etc., of when you take a story and turn
it into a reader's theatre script? I am playing around with the idea of
doing this with my 3rd and 4th graders with some holiday picture books
but I am planning on taking all of the text so feel that this is ok...I
am not changing the story itself. Is this OK?
