Homework 9/19

After you read for at least 20 min, please leave the title and author of your book in the comment section.  This week I want you to talk to me about your mental images also.  In your comment, tell me what words the author used to help you create a mental image.  Remember that when you use the authors words, you need to put the word or words in "quotation marks".
Happy Reading,
Mrs. Ford and Miss Wheeler

    The book I am reading is called Tonight on the Titanic by Mary Pope Osborne. The words that help create mental images for me are "powerful waves" which make me think of big crashing waves.
