Book recommendations from your classmates

One of the things I like about teaching the non-fiction writing class is the number of book recommendations that come out of it. Here are some that were either mentioned in our last class session or that I am coming across as I read your final papers.

Anusha and Marta gave high marks to "The Princess: A True Story of Life Behind the Veil in Saudi Arabia." I went looking for it on Amazon and found that it is part of a trilogy by Jean Sasson. Sounds well worth reading.

In her article on tree houses, Caela discussed "The Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder" by Richard Louv. Think your kids might be spending too much time on video games and not enough time in fresh air? Read this one.

Also, Dawn sent me the link for the Scrivener software. It's a program to help you organize and write a book. Both Dawn and Maggie recommended it.

I'll keep reading and passing on recommendations. Congratulations to this class, the first I have taught where all members showed up, did the assignments and successfully completed the class.
