I have two items that are totally unrelated.
1. Know we just had the big discussion of bean bag chairs: was just =
looking through the new spring J.C. Penney catalog - still a fascination =
for someone of my generation?? and in the bedding pages they now have a =
Clifford bean bag chair! Looks like it would be a cute addition to any =
library - I cannot attest to quality, just "cuteness." I think the =
price was around $35.00.
2. I have a fifth grade teacher who is in the process of giving his =
students an assignment that has to do with the culture of the U.S. when =
their grandparents were young. He was looking for a fiction book for =
them to read. I think books that address the times like Cultural History =
of the 1950's etc. will be good for info, but I am having a hard time =
with the fiction book. Any ideas?? He is thinking the time period would =
be the 40's and 50's. I think he is looking for something that talks =
about everyday life. It looks like In the Year of the Boar the little =
girl becomes Americanized, but I think there must be something else out =
there and I just can't think of it. I would appreciate any help.
Thanks!
