There’s nothing like reading a good book, the feeling of knowledge that surrounds and with every turn of a page the larger the world gets. Times change and people get busier, books become less used and the only entity we read is gossip and political trash on our phones. Those little screens turn our creativity into white and black images, they take way our sense of creativity and individuality. Reading Brave New World, you begin to realize that the author was not too far off in the way he describes

was impacted by different innovations, technology, and science throughout the world some of these include the Johann Guttenburg’s printing press from 1440, the scientific revolution, the industrial revolution, and WWI technology.

Before The Johann Guttenburg’s printing press was invented people used to hand write books this took a every long time and limited the spread of ideas, books were very expensive and there were many errors. The printing

It’s Raining Books I embraced what it means to be a real reader at a young age. I didn’t merely read books, I LIVED books. My second grade teacher insisted her students write about their favorite books and why we chose that specific book. Easy peasy lemon squeezy Mrs. Laforte! Gazing down at the paper on my beloved cubby desk, the choice was clear: Dinosaurs Days by Joyce Milton. “I love this book because I love dinosaurs. I even have dinosaur toys!” (From an adorable little boy a.k.a. Bradley)

Prior to 1450, books were reproduced by monks through the painstaking process of copying them by hand. This made books very rare and expensive, meaning members of the lower and middle classes could not easily obtain them. However, in 1450, Johannes Gutenberg changed all of this with his invention of the printing press. Within 50 years of its invention, the printing press was found in all major cities in Europe (Lauer, 2001). Today, more and more books are published each day. In 1996, there were 68

overall information about the library: what you can do and what you can find in the library. The library was created in 1991. The Harold Washington library is very big and rich and has 9 floors where on each you can find books on different topics( from children’s books to business, science, technology, government, history, literature, art and music).

challenge these books are varied. The most common reason to challenge or ban a book is because of its sexual content. The Catcher in the Rye is one such book that has been challenged constantly because of its sexual content. It was challenged in Goffstown, New Hampshire school in 1994 because of its sexual exploits. It was removed and then later reinstated at Windsor Forest High School in Savannah, Georgia (2000) when in 1999, a parent complained about the sex and violence in the book. It was also

Some kids have trouble reading so having a little lower reading level for them could help them catch up and not feel like they can't read. The levels will still be at a difficult level but only to strengthen the reading skills. There are also kids that are really good at reading and need more challenging books. To regulate this the books will be split into sections and I will give each child

I have always had an unusual relationship with books. I went to a Hawaiian immersion school where instruction was solely delivered through the Hawaiian language all throughout elementary. All of my teachers from kindergarten to fourth grade designated time after lunch for reading. We would gather around and the teacher would proceed to read Hawaiian books. Everything from common books that had been translated from English such as “Harold and the Purple Crayon” to Hawaiian legends. We would also visit

Gutenberg in 1455 in Germany and was the discovery of how to print books using separate metal letters to make a page of words (forme). One or two typesetters readied the form, proof readers checked these pages and two journeymen spread Gutenberg’s soot and linseed oil ink all over the forme, before putting damp paper over it and pressing down on it using a screw attached to a wide thick wooden plate. The printing press developed a way for book production to be quicker, cheaper and in large
