    There are perhaps no days of our childhood we lived so fully as those we spent with a favorite book.” This is a famous quote said by Marcel Proust. Books over the centuries have had an influential impact on the lives of many. Arguably, there are none more influential than children’s books. Children’s books contain important life lessons and teach many children the basic values they will hold for the remainder of their lives. Examples of the best range from the well-known Dr. Seuss books, to the always-popular Winnie the Pooh books. Although those are historically popular, The Rainbow Fish, by Marcus Pfister, is one that should be kept in mind. With it’s enticing illustrations, simple and descriptive context, and lesson it portrays, the children’s book The Rainbow Fish by Marcus Pfister should be considered for a spot on the “Top 100 Children’s Books” list.…

    With many of the slave states no longer part of the U.S., Lincoln encouraged states with very few slaves to abandon slavery. He passed a law providing monetary compensation to any state willing to emancipate its slaves. During the war, Lincoln issued the Preliminary Emancipation Proclamation, which instilled fear in the Confederate states by stating that he would emancipate all slaves in the Confederacy, if they did not surrender by the end of the year. His attempt was futile, and the Confederacy did not let up.…

    I chose the book Little House in the Big Woods by Laura Ingalls Wilder and illustrated by Garth Williams. This book was first published in 1932. I chose this book at random from my grandmother’s house over Thanksgiving. I knew that she had all of the books and my sister had used my grandmother’s collection to read them all when she was younger. I just chose the first book that I saw and I really lucked out because it looked interesting. I felt that I could not go wrong with any of the books because they are widely praised for being great reads. This was the first time that I was reading a book from the collection. I had been interested in other titles when I was younger so I never became interested in these books.…

    “Dinofours” by Steve Metzger was my favorite series of books I liked to have read to me when I was little. My absolute favorite book in the series was “It’s time for school!” I would make my mom read it to me everyday when I was getting ready to go to preschool for the first time. This book is special to me because it made me excited to go to school and learn at a very young age. As a reader, this book allowed me to enjoy learning how to read. As I got older, I would find myself coming back to the books when I could read them myself. This book also inspired me to read more books to find more stories that intrigued me as much as this one did.…

    One of the most memorable books of my childhood is called “The Rainbow Fish”. In kindergarten, we read this book almost every day. I don’t know why I liked this particular book so much. Was it the colorful pattern the book cover had? I just don’t know. I thought this book was the most amazing book I ever heard of. When I think of this book, I think about how my teacher helped me and my classmates learn how to read better with this book. My literacy experience started at home. Every one can’t say the same. Sitting in bed every night, waiting on my mother to come tuck me in and read me a bedtime stories. When she finally came, she would walk towards my bookshelf to grab a particular book every night. I never knew what it was called, but I know…

    According to Cyndi Giorgis and Joan Glazer “Good children’s literature contains freshness and honesty. It may touch children’s emotions; it may stimulate their imaginations. It may make them think about new ideas or thing about old ides in new ways,” (2009, p. 37).

    I did my research on McDonald's a global organization that has had a few cultural issues that affects them when growing outside the United States. So as we all know McDonald's is a fast food company, they started in the United States in 1940 as a barbecue restaurant. In 1948 they took a look at the restaurant and choice to change what they made and sold. They moved to a production line principle and start to make hamburger. McDonald's became a franchise in 1955 when businessman Ray Kroc purchased the chain from the McDonald brothers and started its worldwide growth. The thing that most do not know is that they our operated by a franchisee, an affiliate, or the corporation itself. Right now McDonald's restaurants are found in 119 countries around the world and they serve about 68 million customers each day, so they have had to deal with many different cultural issues. I think two issues that they have had to work through that was hard were opening in India and the outlook that they and other fast food places are the reason for fatter people.…

    Conducting a time analysis was a pretty eye opening experience for me. I analyzed my time from Saturday 6/15 through Friday 6/21. As a family man, the fact that I spend a great deal of my time, over half, during the course of a week working and sleeping is somewhat unsettling (see Figure 1 – Weekly Time Analysis). I spend an average of 55 hours per week working, a minimum of 11 hours each day, 5 days a week. I slept approximately 5-6 hours per night, a total of 40 hours for the week. The combination of the two is about 56.5% of my week’s time. Studying took up around 20 hours or approximately 12 %. I spent 7 hours in my car during the week, which was to and from work for the most part. Family time, eating, and recreation was a total of 43 combined hours or 25.6%. “Other” consisted of a handful of other activities and was about 3 hours of my week. Seeing how few hours I actually spend with my family doesn’t sit well. Yet, knowing I work the long hours I do for the betterment of my family makes it all worth it.…
