I loved the book. \nIf you remember, they wanted "Sameness", also if you recall the purpose of "Sameness" was to make sure people didn't make the wrong choices, in turn they eliminated all choices, using strict rules and relinquishing the ability to see color.

It is about a famous rock star's spoiled daughter becoming the nanny of an extremely mature little girl. The girl (Dakota Fanning) teaches her (Brittney Murphy) how to grow up and vise versa. \n\nIt is wonderful and I highly recommend it.

It's all just a ghost story that people tell their kids to keep them in line. It's just a fairytale. It's just made-up.

'Blue babies' who are born with a 'hole in their hearts', and who soon succumb to a lack of adequate oxygen in their blood streams, are indeed a genuine medical phenomenon - all over the world !\n'Indigo children', first described by the celebrity American psychic Edgar Cayce (1877-1945), are said to be 'easy to recognize by their unusually large and clear eyes, precocious attitude, amazing memory and a strong desire to live instinctively'. According to Cayce, these children are 'sensitive, gifted souls with an evolved consciousness who will change the vibrations of our lives and create one land, one globe and one species'. He called them 'our generation's bridges to the future'.\n...If they are for real, they must have all gone underground ! Or else, left in sheer disgust, to some better planet ! \nHave never come across one yet, nor ever hope to !

It is a book that was just made into a movie-it is fiction- but hidden in D'vinci's paintings is a code that when they de-sifer it claims to be proof that Christ was a mere mortal and the whole consept of him being the son was God was a haux.\nSome want to expose the Hoax to the world and others want to protect the secret so that religion stays in tact.\nI need to see the movie to get the whole story but that's the basics.

It is about a Black family, the Logans, that goes thru terrible racism in Missippi (I think?). They are the only black family that owns their own land, and are very proud of it. Many things happen during the book, including other Black families being lynched and killed, and one of their friends, TJ, gets in trouble with some white kids who use him as a "plaything."

"Night" by Elie Weisel, is an autobiographical holocaust novel. I'd rather not give away the storyline, but it runneth over with themes and ideas. Death, faith, memories and the past... \n\nAs far as effects are concerned, I'd say the book gave an increased awareness of the events during the holocaust. It adds a very emotional aspect to something many people have only read about in history books. \n\nBelow are some study guides for this book, in case they can guide your research.

It is a thriller story involving secret societies, conspiracies, the Catholic Church, and the fictional "truth" about Jesus Christ. Here is the author's own summary: \n\nA renowned Harvard symbologist is summoned to the Louvre Museum to examine a series of cryptic symbols relating to Da Vinci's artwork. In decrypting the code, he uncovers the key to one of the greatest mysteries of all time . . . and he becomes a hunted man.\nDuring the course of the novel it is alleged that the Catholic Church is perpetuating a major, centuries-long conspiracy to hide the "truth" about Jesus Christ from the public, and it or its agents are willing to stop at nothing, including murder, to do so.

Dear corky,\n\nhave you read the book yet?  What sort of presentation are you expected to do?\n\nYou could always look at critiquing the work.  The premise of the story is how human (in this case children) would behave when they are faced with various circumstances and pressure of nature and need for survival.\n\nYou could also analyse how the kids "organize" themselves - the formation of "society" on the island.\n\nYou could analyze how the kids built their own "religion" or belief system.\n\nYou could analyze how the author portray human nature.  Would these pointers be enough?

Good book.  \n\n"At the same time, she takes white paper and glues it over the inside cover of the children's books, hiding the table that showed that the books used to be used by white students and were now issued to "nigras."\n\n They were so excited because they had an opportunity to read books only allowed for whites.

The name of the book is The Third Millennium by Paul D. Meier.  It tells the story of Michael's, the arch angel, assignment to protect that Jewish family.  The daughter dies in childbirth.  Her husband was a used car salesman.  His father was a Baptist minister who figured out where they needed to go for protection.  The son in the family loved a blind Chinese girl but they never married.  They did not move to Petra either.  They stayed in the U.S.  \n\nIt is an excellent book.  I have read it several times.  My cover is worn off and the pages are yellow and dog eared.
