Top Ten Books
In English this year we read Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, a novel of a futuristic society controlled by the media, where books had no place, seeing as they were burned. Our teacher had us ask twenty people what ten books we would keep if all the rest in the world were to be burned. I thought it would be interesting to see your lists. You can put down series and textbooks and can be as braod as you need to be.
Here was mine:
1. The Bible
2. Webster's Dictionary
3. Wold History Books
4. English/Grammar Textbooks/Reference
5. Fahrenheit 451 - Ray Bradbury
6. Harry Potter Series - JK Rowling
7. Complete Book of all Mythology
8. Alice In Wonderland - Lewis Carrol
9. Science Texts
10. Mathematics Texts
Your turn kiddos :]

I've heard that it's possible to grow up - I've just never met anyone who's actually done it. Without parents to defy, we break the rules we make for ourselves. We throw tantrums when things don't go our way, we whisper secrets with our best friends in the dark, we look for comfort where we can find it, and we hope - against all logic, against all experience, against all odds. Like children, we never give up hope.
