LIBRARY

A STRENUOUS LIFE 1990 – The Senior Class had a collage of pictures and list of class officers for each of their years at Roosevelt. Hmmm..Sounds like a nice tradition to me.

IT’S NEW AND IT’S ON THE SHELF – The Titan’s Curse by Rick Riordan. The disappearance of the goddess Artemis while out hunting a rare, ancient monster, prompts a group of her followers to join Percy and his friends in an attempt to find and rescue her before the winter solstice, when her influence is needed to sway the Olympian Council regarding the war with the Titans.

YOU DON’T NEED TO TAKE AN AP LITERATURE CLASS TO TAKE THE AP LITERATURE TEST – But it might help if you read this book. The Armies of the Night by Norman Mailer. The author reports on his participation in a Vietnam War protest that took place in Washington D.C. on October 21, 1967, where he was part of a crowd estimated at anywhere from 20,000 to 200,000 made up of people from all walks of life and hovered over by helicopters and armed soldiers.
