When given the task of creating both a whole new superhero and comic script, I was shocked by the amount of control and creativity I would have throughout the process. Creating my own personal hero is what excited me most as a writer, although I realized how hard it is to truly be original in the world of comics. Since Superman’s grand debut in 1938 it would seem as though every superpower has been thought of. The “roadblock” of creating an original hero pushed my creativity and lead to my…

the crucial three-person groups. Comics has DC’s holy trinity of Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman; In children cartoons the Ash, Brock, and Misty dynamic was used so well that even though brock and misty haven’t been regular characters in the cartoon for a nearly a decade, they are still iconic; but, over the past 30 years, perhaps no fiction trio is as well-known and beloved as the Harry, Ron, and Hermione trio of the J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series of books and accompanying film…

fiction author, expresses the importance of libraries in the above quotation, stating that access to the public library essentially “cures” us of our nescience, pessimism, and prejudice. Bray describes books—to which the library card is a passport—as windows into new mindsets, ideas and perspectives; books are described as conduits by which the library broadens…

course the picture books were the best. I mean, at that age, I didn’t really have the visualization skills to see the book on my own just from words, versus how I am today. So, I loved having the pictures in books as a visual aid. I was reading things like “Beauty & the Beast, The Jungle Book, Tarzan, Cinderella, and The Lion King.” I can’t say how many times I read those books over and over. I went on to read more and more of those books, but this time they had some chapters. Books such as…

First, arranging fiction books by genre will help students, especially younger students, find what they want to read for pleasure more easily than shelving them by author’s last name. Students need to experience success, not frustration when browsing. This crucial first step to finding a “just right book” is aided by the bookstore model library organization.

After a few short minutes of looking, I triumphantly pulled the book from the shelf and inspected the cover. It looked more worn and faded and had an old-fashioned drawing on the front that didn’t catch my fancy. Only slightly dissuaded, I turned it over to the back to read the synopsis. Sentence by sentence, my…
