THE BATTLE FOR POWER.

You have probably watched on television all the presidential candidates campaigning for the 2008 election. They are all full of promises and in great hope to change the way this country is operating. All of them are going across the country participating in numerous rallies, making speeches and asking citizens to vote for them.
However, if you look back in history, presidential elections have changed drastically. In America’s early days candidates did not go out among the public to solicit votes. Their supporters did the work for them.
This book is a non-fiction book that is written so well that it can be read as a historical fiction and you will really be drawn to read it do to the fact that election is coming up and it will be really cool to know all the stuff that is behind an election. PRESIDENTIAL RACES: THE BATTLE FOR POWER IN THE UNITED STATES by ARLENE MORRIS-LIPSMAN is campaigning for you attention.

For grades four and up.

CRISIS IN THE WORLD!

At first this book might look a bit boring and not as appealing to you guys as some other popular titles. However, I can assure you that there is absolutely nothing mundane about it. It truly is a fascinating book about our environment and the affects of the ever popular topic, the global warming. More glaciers and ice shelves are disappearing from the world than ever before. We are not taking care of our planet which is more important than perhaps cleaning your room. The before and after pictures are really great visual aid on things that get discussed in the book. The language is very basic and it offers a very simple definitions on terms like the greenhouse effect, gases, etc. AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH : THE CRISIS OF GLOBAL WARMING by AL GORE is a very important book that you can read before the year ends.


For grades five and up.
