LME 518: January 2008
http://trisha-h.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 29, 2008. Written by Julius Lester. The book I chose to read by Julius Lester was. I also liked that there was little bits of humor in the story, such as when Mr. Lester writes that when John Henry helped his father rebuild the porch, he added an indoor swimming pool and a "jacutzi".or when he writes that his "great-granddaddy's brother's cousin's sister-in-law's uncle's aunt" was at the race.

LME 518: Dr. Seuss
http://trisha-h.blogspot.com/2008/03/dr-seuss.html
Monday, March 31, 2008. An issue included in my professor's discussion of these two Dr. Seuss books are that they are didactic, meaning that they are "intended for instruction" ( http:/ dictionary.reference.com/search? I think that the Dr. Seuss books will always appeal to children (once again, and adults). After 51 years for "The Cat in the Hat," 37 years for "The Lorax," and 54 years for "Horton Hears a Who," these books are entertaining children today, and will continue to entertain.
