Biography of Madeleine L'Engle paints authentic look into her life growing up in New York City and abroad, facing difficult periods in school but never giving up her dream to become a successul published writer of children's literature. Students will be encouraged to keep a journal, especially those who aspire to write children's books, in order to remember how a child thinks.
Borrowed this book from the library to assist in planning a trip to Colorado, but realized it's for a juvenile audience and not helpful as a modern trip planning resource.
Non-fiction account of the development of the first Atomic Bomb. Great facts and details about an event that changed the world forever. Quick and easy read with information about the development, testing, and use of the bomb that ultimately ended World War II.
