Books:

These were all books that had been mentioned throughout the course of Media Literacy, a lot of them sounded really interesting and I may read them in the future. Of these books I have personally read one- The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, which is all about the HeLa cells, I was given the opportunity to read this amazing novel and write an essay as part of the intro to my dignitas class. I loved it! The lesson where most of these book were introduced was really interesting as the books just seemed to keep pouring of of the box that was brought in. It reminds me of my sister, she is an author, an amazing writer and currently has a job at the Hermantown Star, in her room she has her walls lined with books shelves, and hundreds of book. All of these hundreds of books are in perfect order in alphabetical order by the author A's and the bottom working the way up and around her room. She loves to read, and it is an amazing collection.
