blog#8

I chose the book "When Dinosaurs Die: A Guide to Understanding Death" for my paper. I think everyone can relate to losing a loved one, making the topic especially accessible. The book is very informative and has appealing, brightly colored photographs that offset the seriousness and somber of death; however, I will explore in my paper how some of them can be considered controversial. Overall, I think this book could be very helpful to children who have lost a loved one or those who are just curious about death in general.
