    With so much new information being posted about Hurricane Beryl, you gave some great tips on tracking the storm. I know Beryl is expected to make landfall where I live tomorrow, so I've been one of those people who have been searching for updates as well! Great video!

    Being specific if very important. I love the example you gave about typing only the word Beryl because anything can come up for that. Great use of an example for specificity.

    I like that you pointed out how recent articles were posted. I think the newer something is, the more relevant it will probably be. This is a great video, especially for the crazy hurricane season we might have facing us.

    This was a great video for us to search for something so current! You were also specific about what you were searching for which is why I think so many relevant searches came up! Awesome job!

  1. Bibliography: Fox, Mem. Possum Magic. Illustrated by Julie Vivas, Harcourt, 1983. 2. Plot Summary: In Possum Magic, Grandma Poss is a bush magic-wielding possum living in the Australian outback. She uses her powers to protect her granddaughter, Hush, by making her invisible, with her main goal of keeping her safe from the dangers of the world, specifically snakes.

Unit 1 (International Lit) Book Review Everyone Poops

-
  1. Bibliography Gomi, Tarō. 1993. Everyone Poops. San Francisco, CA: Chronicle Books. ISBN 9780916291457. 2. Plot Summary Let’s not beat around the bush: Everyone Poops is EXACTLY what the title says. No metaphors here!!!! It literally goes from the tiniest of bugs to the biggest elephants, all the way through to humans. This classic Japanese picture book puts it ALL out there; if something eats, it poops. (Which I mean biologically, we know. It’s science. But definitely not something that is talked about so frankly, and with added pictures usually in our culture). With matter-of-fact text and simple illustrations, Tarō Gomi strips away the taboo and gets kids and young readers thinking about the one thing nobody really talks about but everybody does. Yes, I do mean EVERYBODY. It goes into detail describing how different animals have different size poops, different smelling poops, and even so far as to say that while some animals poop on the go and don’t’ care WHERE they go...
